Photovoltaic installations are gaining increasing popularity as an environmentally friendly source of electrical energy. The key element in these systems is the inverter, which converts solar energy into alternating current ready for use in households or businesses. The inverter plays an irreplaceable role, but what happens when it fails? In this article, we will discuss the consequences of an inverter failure for the entire photovoltaic installation and ways to manage these potential issues.
