In the past, virtually all solar systems featured panels and an inverter of equal capacity. Now many installers recommend having an array of panels with a holding power larger than that of your inverter. This is called inverter oversizing.
Buying extra panels is often more cost-effective than upgrading your inverter. Photo: Mondiaux Solar. Oversizing allows your system to convert more energy when conditions are just right, delivering peak power for longer once the sun has left its prime position. “This increases your overall daily production,” Brian says.
But if the total power output of the solar panels matches or is within the maximum rated capacity of the inverter, then it’s safe and efficient. Overloading an inverter with too many panels can cause a number of problems, including reduced efficiency, potential damage to the inverter, and safety concerns due to overheating.
There is an increased risk of energy clipping to consider, but most installers will tell you the benefits of inverter oversizing far outweigh this potential drawback. Energy clipping occurs when more solar energy is harvested by panels than what their inverter can handle, essentially “wasting” potential power.
