3 FAQs about How much is the inverter high voltage

How much does a solar inverter cost?

Most solar panel contractors charge around $50 to $100 per hour. You may save $1,000 to $2,500 up-front by choosing a string inverter over a microinverter or hybrid inverter. A solar inverter costs $2,000 on average, with prices often ranging from $1,000 to $3,000. That said, some homeowners spend as little as $800 or as much as $5,000.

What size solar inverter do I Need?

The inverter's capacity should closely match the DC size of your solar panels. For example, a 6 kW solar array typically pairs with a 6 kW inverter; however, slightly smaller or larger inverters may be used, depending on the system design.

How long do solar inverters last?

Most solar inverters last between 10 and 20 years, depending on the type. Microinverters have a longer life span. They can last 20 to 25 years, and many come with a 25-year warranty. String inverters last 10 to 15 years and come with a five- to 10-year warranty.
