Product Introduction
3.1 Photovoltaic Grid-connected system
Common photovoltaic grid-connected systems include photovoltaic modules,
micro-inverter, electric meters and grids, as shown in the figure below. The
photovoltaic modules generate direct current, the micro-inverter converts the
direct current into alternating current that meets the requirements of the
grid, and the meter feeds the converted AC power to the grid.

D | Grid |
3.2 Micro-inverter
A micro-inverter is a component-level photovoltaic inverter that can
effectively solve single-point system failures in photovoltaic power
generation systems.
Our VN2T08US micro-inverter integrates dual-channel MPPT function, even if a
single photovoltaic module fails or is blocked by shadows, other modules are
still working normally. This feature maximizes the power generation
performance of photovoltaic systems in a cost-effective manner.
This series of micro-inverters has a component-level monitoring function,
which can monitor the current, voltage and power data of each component.
In addition, the DC voltage of this series of micro-inverters is only tens of
volts (less than 60V), which can minimize potential safety hazards.
3.3 One-to-two system
According to the number of connected photovoltaic modules, micro-inverters can
be divided into one-toone, one-to-two, and one-to-four series, that is, micro-
inverters can be connected to one, two or four PV modules respectively, as
shown in the figure below.
This manual mainly introduces our company’s one-to-two series of micro-
inverters. The output power of this series of micro-inverters is as high as
800 VA, which is outstanding among the one-to-two series of micro-inverters.
Each micro-inverter can connect up to two photovoltaic modules, with dual-
channel MPPT and modulelevel data monitoring functions, higher power
generation and more convenient maintenance.
3.4 WIFI technology
VN2T08US series micro-inverter adopts WIFI wireless communication solution.
After Micro-inverter is connected to the user’s router by WiFi, it
communicates with the server through Internet access, and the background
server communicates with the user’s app to realize the interaction of power
generation data.

Installation preparation
4.1 Location and spacing requirements
Please install the micro-inverter and all DC connections under the
photovoltaic modules, avoiding direct sunlight, rain, snow, ultraviolet
radiation, etc. A clearance of at least 1 in should be left around the
microinverter enclosure to ensure ventilation and heat dissipation.
4.2 Multiple photovoltaic modules connected to Microinverters
General guidelines:
- The photovoltaic module should be connected to the DC input port of the micro-inverter.
- If the length of the original cable is not enough, please use a DC extension cable. Please consult your local power operator to confirm that this DC cable complies with local regulations.
Common wiring methods are shown in the figure below:
A | Photovoltaic modules |
---|---|
B | DC extension cable |
C | Micro-inverter |
Note: Considering the influence of extreme local temperature, the module voltage must not exceed the maximum input voltage of the micro-inverter, otherwise the micro-inverter may be damaged (refer to the “Technical Specifications” section to determine the maximum input voltage).

4.4 AC branch capacity
Our VN2T08US can be used with the built-in 12 AWG or 10 AWG AC bus and AC bus
T-junction. The number of micro-inverters that can be connected to each AC
leg (12 AWG or 10 AWG) must not exceed the following limits.
| VN2T08US| | | Maximum over current protection
device (OCPD)
---|---|---|---|---
Maximum number of micro-inverters
per spur (12 AWG)| 5@220 V
5@230 V
5@240 V| | | 20 A
Maximum number of micro-inverters
per spur (10 AWG)| 9@220 V
9@230 V
9@240 V| | | 32 A
Note:
- The number of micro-inverters that can be connected to each AC branch line depends on the current carrying capacity of the cables and connectors.
- One-to-one, one-to-two and one-to-four series micro-inverters can be connected to the same AC branch line as long as the total current does not exceed the ampacity specified by local regulations.
4.5 Notes
This equipment shall be installed according to the following system design
requirements:
- During installation, the device must be disconnected from the grid (disconnect switch), and the photovoltaic modules must be shielded or isolated.
