In a solar photovoltaic system, the inverter plays a vital role. It is responsible for converting the direct current (DC) generated by the photovoltaic panels into alternating current (AC) for home and commercial use. According to their operating frequencies, inverters are mainly divided into high-frequency inverters and low-frequency inverters. This article will introduce the characteristics, advantages and applicable scenarios of low-frequency solar inverters in detail from the professional perspective of GreenMore.

1. Working principle of low frequency solar inverter

Low-frequency solar inverters use power frequency transformers to convert direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC), and their core operating frequency is 50Hz or 60Hz. Compared with high-frequency inverters, low-frequency solutions use the principle of electromagnetic induction to achieve voltage amplitude adjustment and electrical isolation through transformer windings. This design retains the stability advantage of traditional power frequency transformers, while reducing harmonic interference by optimizing the filter circuit, and the output waveform is closer to a standard sine wave.

At the structural level, low-frequency inverters usually include DC input, full-bridge inverter circuit, power frequency transformer, filter circuit and control module.
