Abstract

A solar system is a setup that generates electricity by utilizing solar energy. Grid tied PV plants have the advantage of more effective utilization of generated power. Grid interconnection of PV systems is accomplished through the inverter, which converts dc power generated from PV modules to ac power used for power supply to electric equipments. Solar inverter system is therefore very important for grid connected PV systems. String inverter topologies have an important role in this system with complying to the code and standards.
