Careful optimization of the overall inverter system’s cost and efficiency lead to the choice of a 550V DC maximum system voltage for the PVI5000 for use with 1 kW to 5.3 kWPV arrays per inverter. The PVI5000 inverter is designed to cover solar electric power into utility grade electricity that can be used by home or local power company.

PVI5000 inverter goes into the Grid with MPPT mode that turns the AC relays on and begins feeding the AC voltage into the grid steadily. When all of the input DC voltages fall below the initial voltage setting which is 100Vdc, the PVI5000 inverter will then shut itself down.
