    Microinverter-based Grid-connected PV System System Introduction The microinverter-based grid-connected PV system is mainly composed of the PV modules, grid-connected PV microinverter ("microinverter"), monitoring platform, and power grid. The system structure is shown below. figure 2-1 Microinverter-based Grid-connected PV System Microinverter As an integral part of the PV power system, the microinverter converts the DC power gener- ated from the PV modules into the grid-compatible AC power and feeds it to the grid.
