Inverter Capacity
Inverter capacity is the maximum amount of AC power an inverter can deliver under its rated operating conditions.
Product(s)
EI Inverter (EU)
A battery storage ready hybrid inverter available in single phase and three phase options.
GO Inverter
A battery storage ready hybrid inverter that can be AC or DC coupled for new or retrofit solar installations
What does Inverter Capacity mean?
Inverter capacity is the maximum amount of AC power an inverter can deliver under its rated operating conditions.
How does inverter capacity affect clipping?
When available DC power exceeds the inverter’s output capacity, the system may clip. Designers often oversize the DC array relative to inverter capacity, but the way clipping happens depends on system architecture and whether storage can absorb excess production.
How it relates to Tigo
Tigo hybrid inverter systems are part of a DC architecture that can manage solar and storage through a central inverter strategy.
