Microinverters vs. String Inverters: Choosing the Best Option for Your Solar System

By Jack Casey • February 19, 2025

When designing a solar system for your home, one of the most important decisions is choosing the right type of inverter. Inverters are responsible for converting the Direct Current (DC) power generated by your solar panels into Alternating Current (AC) power that can be used in your home. There are two main types of inverters: microinverters and string inverters. The type you choose will impact your system's efficiency, cost, and monitoring capabilities. As the leading solar experts in Missouri and Illinois, SunSent Solar is here to break down the differences and help you determine the best fit for your home.

AC vs DC: How Solar Power Works

By Jack Casey • February 13, 2025

Understanding AC vs. DC: How Solar Power Works When it comes to solar energy, homeowners often come across the terms AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current). While these might sound technical, understanding the difference is key to making informed decisions about your solar energy system. At SunSent Solar , we specialize in helping Midwest homeowners navigate these essential concepts to get the most out of their solar investment. What is Alternating Current (AC)? AC, or alternating current, is the standard form of electricity used in homes and businesses. It constantly changes direction, moving back and forth to allow for efficient long-distance transmission. This is the type of electricity that powers everyday appliances like refrigerators, televisions, and lights. Because the power grid runs on AC, any solar energy generated must be converted from DC to AC before it can be used in a home.
