Residential inverter range
Choose the architecture before the headline rating.
Sungrow’s residential range includes grid-connected SG inverters and hybrid SH inverters. Their ratings, phase arrangements and battery capabilities vary. A hybrid design still needs a compatible battery, correct backup wiring and an assessment of simultaneous loads.
Storage pathway
A solar-only inverter and a hybrid inverter serve different designs. Check the battery options and additional equipment before planning an upgrade.
Monitoring and approvals
Metering, communications and approved network settings determine what the system can measure and how it operates.
