Single-String or Dual-String Inverter?
The choice between a single-string and dual-string inverter depends on the design of the solar PV array.
A single-string inverter may be suitable where the solar panels are arranged as one compatible string.
A dual-string inverter provides two separate PV inputs, which can be useful where the solar array has different panel orientations or requires separate string inputs.
The correct configuration depends on the panel specifications, string voltage, current and the proposed system design.
How a Grid-Tie Solar Inverter Works
Solar panels generate electricity as DC power. The grid-tie inverter converts this DC electricity into AC power suitable for use within the property’s electrical system.
When solar generation is available, the electricity can be used by connected electrical loads. Depending on the system configuration and applicable requirements, surplus generation may be exported to the electricity grid.
For customers looking to add battery storage, a standard grid-tie inverter should not automatically be assumed to provide battery charging capability. A compatible hybrid inverter or battery storage system may be required.
The inverter must be compatible with the solar PV array and the electrical system into which it is being connected.
If you are unsure which inverter configuration is appropriate, contact us before ordering and we can help you identify the relevant equipment.
Grid-Connected Solar PV Systems
Grid-tie inverters are designed for grid-connected solar PV systems.
They are different from off-grid inverters, which are designed to operate independently of the electricity grid and normally require appropriate battery storage and other off-grid equipment.
If you are looking for a complete off-grid system, see our Off-Grid Solar Kits.
Solar PV Systems supplies solar PV equipment and technical product information throughout the UK.
We do not provide an installation service. Grid-connected solar PV systems and electrical connections should be designed, installed and commissioned by an appropriately qualified professional in accordance with the applicable requirements.
Always check the manufacturer’s specifications and compatibility information before ordering.
