Pros & cons

Pros

  • Panels can work independently: Two independent MPPTs allow the microinverter to manage each panel separately, so shading or a different orientation on one panel does not affect the performance of the other.
  • High-efficiency bifacial panels: The supplied Astronergy bifacial TOPCon N-Type panels deliver 23.3% module efficiency and can also generate from light reaching their rear surfaces.
  • Flexible mounting options: The supplied mount supports ground, wall or balcony installation, with an adjustable tilt from 15° to 45°.

Cons

  • Cable lengths are not specified: The supplier does not state the length of the included AC or DC cables, making it harder to know whether the supplied cables will reach your planned installation location.
  • A simpler kit may offer better value: If both panels can face the same direction in an unshaded location, a dual-MPPT microinverter may offer limited extra benefit. Cheaper City Plumbing kits with a single MPPT could therefore represent better value.

Other items you may need

This plug-in solar kit includes all of the main equipment needed to get set up, but depending on where and how you install it, there may be a couple of additional items worth considering.

Ballast

If you’re installing the kit freestanding, you’ll need ballast to weigh down the mounting frame and help prevent movement or uplift. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the required ballast weight and positioning.

Cable protection

If the AC cable runs through an exposed area, split conduit can provide additional protection. Because the plugs and connectors are moulded onto the cable, split conduit can be fitted around it without needing to remove them.
