Technical FAQs 4

What size solar inverter do I Need?

Your inverter size should match your solar array's capacity, not your electricity bill. This means your inverter doesn’t need to power your entire home—it just converts whatever your panels generate. Let's say you have a 6kW solar array (twenty 300-watt panels).

How many inverters do you need for a 12 kW solar system?

Inverter: one or two inverters of a combined 10 kW–15 kW A 12 kW solar installation in a farm near Berlin utilized a 10 kW inverter with excellent results—saving a couple of hundred dollars on initial cost and still registering peak output. 3. Equate Load Requirements, Not Panel Watts It's not solely about sunlight—actual usage matters, too.

How many Watts Does a solar inverter use?

Depending on where they fall in that band and the size of their solar array, they will likely use a 3, 5, or 10kW inverter. You also need to consider surge watts and voltage drop. Surge watts are the extra power required to start appliances that have motors, such as refrigerators and air conditioners.

How does the inverter size calculator work?

Our Inverter Size Calculator simplifies this task by accurately estimating the recommended inverter capacity based on your solar panel power and quantity. By inputting your panel's rated power and number of panels, the calculator produces a recommended inverter power range that aligns with 80-100% of your system’s total DC capacity.
