How It Works

SolarEdge P400 power optimizers are installed on the back of each module in a PV system. They constantly track the peak output of each module and transmit the collected data to the SolarEdge monitoring platform for maintenance to maximize power harvesting. When combined with a SolarEdge inverter, P400 optimizers maintain the string voltage at a constant level, irrespective of the length of the string. This allows the PV system to mitigate the negative impact when one or more panels are shaded.
It boasts a unique feature, Safe DC, which helps it automatically reduce or completely shut down the DC voltage of the modules when it is disconnected from the inverter or its power switch is turned OFF.
