FAQs 6

Does a solar inverter cause a voltage rise?

Voila, Solar Voltage Rise. In the ideal situation, the voltage rise is not a problem: the inverter increases the grid voltage from 240 volts to 242 volts. The problem arises when the customer’s cables between the inverter and the grid are too small for the size of their solar system. Let’s get back to basics to understand why.

Why is my inverter voltage too high?

Specifically the wires from your inverter and switchboard through to your grid connection point may have too high a resistance. This can be caused by distance, thin wires or bad connections. Your installer should check your home’s voltage rise before installing but, unfortunately, many do not.

Why does an inverter lose energy when converting a wire?

An inverter loses less energy during the converting process while using shorter or thicker AWG cable gauges. There may not be enough power to activate the inverter because of the loss caused by long wires. Both too much and too little power (high voltage) are detrimental to the inverter.

Should a power inverter be lowered if resistance is high?

To keep the equation balanced, if the resistance in your property’s cable is high, either the voltage from your inverter will have to be higher, or the current to the street will have to be lower. But reducing the current is a stupid idea. If your inverter wants to send 20 amps back to the grid, then we should “let it flow”.

What happens if a solar inverter is too low?

The open circuit voltage of the string should be much greater than the minimum input voltage of the inverter; if there are too few modules in series, the open circuit voltage of the string will be too low, resulting in no display on the inverter screen. Solution: Increase the number of solar panels in series.

Why do solar inverters shut down?

A smoking electrical device. To prevent a bad situation getting worse, solar inverters will shut down once grid voltage reaches a set limit. Usually, older inverters have higher set points while most modern ones can reduce their output gradually as grid voltage rises.
