FAQ From Customers
-
What is a solar transformer?
A solar transformer is a type of power transformer specifically designed for solar energy systems. It connects the output of solar inverters to the electrical grid, ensuring safe and efficient voltage conversion. Typically functioning as a step up transformer for solar plants, it increases the low voltage from photovoltaic (PV) panels to the required grid transmission level. NPC Electric’s solar power transformers are engineered for high efficiency, low losses, and long service life in renewable energy applications. -
What is the difference between solar transformer and normal transformer?
The main difference between a solar transformer and a normal power transformer lies in design and operating conditions. A solar transformer is built to handle DC-to-AC conversion from inverters, variable loading, and higher harmonic distortion typical in solar applications. In contrast, a conventional electrical transformer operates under stable grid conditions. NPC Electric designs solar transformers with enhanced insulation, temperature control, and anti-corrosion systems for outdoor solar farms and harsh environments. -
What is the difference between transformer and inverter duty transformer?
A standard transformer transfers AC power between circuits, while an inverter duty transformer is specifically engineered to work with power inverters in solar and wind energy systems. It can withstand high harmonic content, frequent voltage fluctuations, and thermal stress caused by inverter switching. NPC Electric’s inverter duty transformers feature reinforced insulation and optimized cooling for reliable performance in renewable energy networks. -
What is a solar duty transformer?
A solar duty transformer is a specialized solar power transformer used to connect photovoltaic (PV) inverters to the grid.
