    2.2. Description of functions The DC voltage generated by the PV modules is filtered through the input board before entering the power board. The input board also has the function of detecting the insulation impedance and the DC input voltage/current. The power board converts the DC power into AC power. The current converted into AC is filtered through the output board and is then fed into the grid.
