Small Footprint: 4kW Diy Solar Kit with String Inverters

For homeowners with small electric bills and ground-site areas, this 4,000-watt microinverter kit is an attractive, cost-effective green option. This system can generate enough power to offset the impact of using a hot tub or running an air conditioner. It’s a complete photovoltaic power kit that works for homes or businesses, and includes everything you need to get your system up and running.

The system requires 230 square feet of space and produces 300 to 750 kilowatt hours (kWh) alternating current (AC) power per month, assuming at least five sun hours per day with the solar array facing south.

When powered by full sunlight, string inverter systems are a cost-effective solution for home solar installations. An unobstructed south-facing view of the sun will maximize your solar power. If your system is partially shaded by trees, chimneys or other obstructions, the string inverter output will drop along with the output of the whole system.

Due to National Electrical Code standards, rapid shutdown systems are required. You can use this string inverter system on a rooftop if you purchase the additional rapid shutdown devices to make this system NEC-compliant.
