PV panels and inverter ratio

The DC-to-AC ratio — also known as Inverter Loading Ratio (ILR) — is defined as the ratio of installed DC capacity to the inverter’s AC power rating. It often makes sense to oversize a solar array, such that the DC-to-AC ratio is greater than 1 . A PV to inverter power ratio of 1.15 to 1.25 is considered optimal, while 1.2 is taken as the industry standard.

The DC-to-AC ratio — also known as Inverter Loading Ratio (ILR) — is defined as the ratio of installed DC capacity to the inverter’s AC power rating.

A PV to inverter power ratio of 1.15 to 1.25 is considered optimal, while 1.2 is taken as the industry standard.

Most installations will have a ratio between 1.15 to 1.25; inverter manufacturers and solar system designers typically do not recommend a ratio higher than 1.55.

The DC-to-AC ratio, also known as the Array-to-Inverter Ratio, is the ratio of the installed DC capacity (solar panel wattage) to the inverter’s AC output capacity.

The PSR is the ratio of the inverter's rated power to the total rated power of the connected PV modules and is crucial to maximizing energy yield and income.

Installers typically follow one of three common solar inverter sizing ratios:Aggregate panel wattage x 1.25Aggregate panel wattage x 1.3Aggregate panel wattage x 1.35
