Enphase Grid-Tie Microinverters
Enphase Grid-tie Microinverter Quality and Performance
The Enphase Micro inverter system is the first commercially available microinverter system for residential and commercial solar PV applications. The Enphase Microinverter is a fully-integrated device that converts the DC output from a single solar module into grid compliant AC power. The microinverter system is designed to maximize energy harvest, increase system reliability and dramatically simplify design, installation and system management while also improving safety.

The power from each PV module is individually tracked by a microinverter, eliminating losses caused by under performing modules in the array. Microinverters help realize the full energy potential of every PV array, reducing the power-limiting effects of shading, dust, debris, module mismatch, and thermal differences. Problems are isolated to a small fraction of the PV array, while the rest of the PV system continues to function optimally.

M190/ M210 Model Selection Enphase makes microinverters for most popular PV modules. The M190 inverters can be used with modules of up to 230 watts made with 60 to 72 cells in series. The New D380 TwinPack Microinverter is comprised of two Enphase micro inverters in a single enclosure. Its innovative cabling system further reduces balance-of-system and installation costs because it’s possible to install 33% more modules per circuit with the D380. The D380 has a black anodized housing, which allows for better thermal dissipation.

Installation
Each PV module is connected directly to its own microinverter and mounted on the racking underneath. The microinverter's AC wire harnesses are connected to form a continuous AC branch circuit that leads ultimately to the AC utility distribution center.Service is simplified to routine maintenance.

Enphase D380 Twin Pack Microinverter
Enphase Grid-tie Microinverter D380 twin pack Quality and Performance
The Enphase D380 TwinPack micro inverter is optimized for commercial applications, but is applicable to many residential installations as well.

The M210 can be used with modules of up to 240 watt with peak power voltage of 31-50 volts. This version is designed for high efficiency modules like SunPower and SANYO. The Enphase Microinverter is qualified to a NEMA 6 environment rating and operates at full power at temperatures from -40°C (-40°F) to 65°C (149°F), allowing applications in harsh environments.

KACO new energy blueplanet xi Residential Grid-Tie Inverters
KACO Blueplanet xi Residential Grid-Tie Inverter Quality and Performance
The KACO 02xi series currently includes the 1502xi, 2502xi, 3502xi and 5002xi grid tied inverters. The units come with an integrated connection box with a DC/AC switch satisfying the NEC requirement for disconnecting the AC and DC circuits.

The inverter CEC efficiency has been increased for all units to 95.5%. The overall design has been simplified and made more reliable using the latest generation of Digital Signal Processing (DSP) control technology. Field configuration of positive or negative ground is now provided as well as 208 VAC or 240 VAC grid connection with or without a neutral present. TUV Listed to UL 1741 for U.S. and Canada

Installation
Installation is as simple as mounting a bracket to the wall, hanging the inverter and installing a single bolt into the wall. The 02xi inverters are lightweight and easy to lift onto the wall bracket. The connection box allows conduit to enter from left, right, bottom, or rear sides for increased installation flexibility.
