    Installing a solar inverter with a higher capacity offers several advantages. Firstly, it provides flexibility to increase the DC capacity of the solar array in the future without needing to replace the inverter. This reduces the overall stress on the inverter components and lowers the probability of failures over time.

    However, it’s important to note that installing a significantly higher capacity inverter than necessary is not always required. Most inverters are designed to operate efficiently even in higher ambient temperatures. However AC to DC ratio, typically ranging from 1:1 to 1:1.2, can be sufficient to ensure optimal performance and reliability without the need for excessive overcapacity in the inverter.

    Yes, you can, if you are in any of the 13 states that have notified their Green Energy Open Access rules. Under these new rules that were announced in June, 2022 by the centre, all customers, with requirements as low as 100 kW are eligible to apply for green energy through open access.

    Partially true as majority of the solar module makers are based in Gujarat, especially Surat. However, several solar panel factories are now spread on Greater Noida, Ambala, Uttarakhand and even Hyderabad.

    When choosing a solar panel manufacturer in India, consider their reputation, track record, and customer reviews for reliability. Check product quality, certifications, and adherence to standards. All domestic solar plants today meet DCR (Domestic Content Requirements) standards. Prioritize prompt after-sales service for smooth operation. Compare prices, but prioritize quality over cost alone.

    • Keep the Inverter cool by ensuring the fan, ventilation system, or other cooling technology is up to speed and working correctly.

    • Keep the air intake filter clean to ensure there is no clogging, preventing the free flow of air and preventing moisture from building up internally.

    • Check for Error Codes or changes in the inverter lights; these could be signs that something is amiss and needs attention.

    • Use Solar Monitoring Technology whenever available from your solar equipment supply company. Whether they are apps or alert systems of any kind, they can help monitor performance and spot issues before they escalate.
