What is a microinverter?

A microinverter is a device that converts the DC voltage produced by a solar panel into AC voltage, which can be used directly in a household as 230V. Solar panels are connected directly to the microinverter, eliminating the need for a central inverter. This also provides a fire safety advantage as microinverters can be switched off from the circuit breaker and the DC voltage never exceeds 60V. In addition, a microinverter also works as an optimizer, meaning that shading on one panel will not affect the output of other solar panels. By optimizing, the best results are achieved by switching shaded solar panels out of the circuit. In other words, each solar panel works independently of others and activity can be monitored in real-time through a mobile app or website.

Microinverters have several advantages over central inverters, such as better energy efficiency, greater resilience to shading and uneven panel wear, better monitoring options, and the ability to install panels in different directions and angles, increased safety, and modular design, making the system easier to maintain and expand.

In summary, a solar park with microinverters delivers maximum results for the lowest price, as a string inverter with optimizers always costs more in total. Microinverters are only suitable for immediate consumption of electricity and selling the surplus back to the grid. The microinverter solution does not support energy storage.

Note: When using microinverters, there is no need or possibility to perform DC measurements, and no electrical installation audit is required.

Safety - maximum DC voltage of 60V and electrical current of 12A.
Optimizers - the optimization interface is already built in. Better performance in shaded areas.
Price - microinverters always cost less than an inverter + optimizer!
Expansion - the system can always be easily expanded, as cabling is at 230V.
Monitoring - each panel can be monitored separately and its productivity tracked.

TSUN microinverters

TSUN microinverters are small devices that make solar panels more efficient. They are installed beneath the panels and convert the alternating current into direct current, which allows them to be used in the existing electrical grid.

With microinverters, the energy produced by each panel can be better monitored and optimized, which increases the overall efficiency of solar panels. They also help to avoid energy losses that can occur when panels have different ages, orientations, or shading.

TSUN microinverters have several advantages over traditional string inverters. Because microinverters are installed beneath each panel, faults or problems affect only one panel, not the entire system. Microinverters also increase safety because they allow for individual control of electricity production on each panel.

In summary, TSUN microinverters are efficient and reliable, helping to optimize the use of solar panels and increase their overall efficiency. They are easy to install and provide safety in electricity production, making them an ideal choice for both residential and large commercial buildings.
