Unlike string inverters, which convert DC power into AC power for a group of connected panels, microinverters are connected to each individual panel. Installers usually mount the microinverters onto the back of the solar panel, but they can also be placed next to the panel on your solar racking system.
A string inverter is a type of central inverter that receives solar panel inputs in strings (or groups) and converts their currents from DC to AC. An entire solar system is usually managed by only one or two string inverters. Each “series string” usually consists of six to 12 individual solar panels wired together.
Unlike string inverters, microinverters operate independently of one another. So if one panel has an obstruction like shade or even fails altogether, all the other panels continue to work normally and to their full potential.
1. How do microinverters and string inverters impact the aesthetics of a solar installation? Microinverters are typically less visible, as they’re installed behind panels. String inverters may require more visible wiring and larger inverters, which could be a consideration for homeowners concerned about aesthetics.
