© Siemens AG 2012 SINVERT PVS in power plants Link between solar power and public AC grid How solar power is fed into the AC grid Sunlight is transformed into solar energy in the photovoltaic modules. The direct current obtained is bundled in the field with the aid of SINVERT PVS CombinerBoxes and then fed into a SINVERT PVS inverter (see diagrams on this page).
© Siemens AG 2012 The SINVERT PVS CombinerBoxes are designed for vertical mounting. The output side of the SINVERT PVS CombinerBoxes can be optionally equipped with or without a switch disconnector. CombinerBoxes with switch disconnectors are capable of disconnecting the connected section of the photovoltaic generator from the SINVERT PVS inverter, e.g. for maintenance work.
© Siemens AG 2012 IEC-compliant inverter stations The inverter stations are system solutions for fast, simple implementation of turnkey photovoltaic stations. They are ideally suited for photovoltaic power plants ("Power Plant" segment) with outputs of 1 000 kW upwards. They are typically employed in ground-mounted systems. Inverter stations contain two to four SINVERT PVS inverters and, depending on the selected type, also medium-voltage switchgear and medium-voltage transformers.

The diagram shows in simplified form that the master moves to the next inverter each day (see left column). In actual fact, the inverter with the fewest operating hours is started as the master on the next day.
