Maybe I do not fully understand the tech specs of these optimizers. Could you clarify or point to the product specs as to why this would be? Thanks.
This is because of SolarEdge's SafeDC technology. With SolarEdge whenever AC power is off, DC wires are automatically de-energized. Power optimizers are designed to automatically shut down the DC voltage in the PV wires to protect installers, maintenance personnel and firefighters Here is a white paper that goes into more detail: solaredge.live.linnovate.net/sites/default/files/fire_safety_white_paper-na.pdf
Is it possible to avoid the use of the optimizers?
