Installation
2.0 Installation
You can install individual PV modules in any combination of module
quantity, orientation, type, and power rate. Refer to Figure 2 for the
Micro GT 500’s dimensions.
Monitoring and Analysis with the MagWeb GT
The MagWeb GT is the information gateway for your MicroGT 500
inverter system. The MagWeb GT collects module performance data
from each individual MicroGT inverter
.
The MagWeb GT is installed
by simply plugging it into any wall outlet and providing an Ethernet
or Wi-Fi connection to a broadband router or modem. The software
displays performance trends, informs you of abnormal events, and
controls system shutdown when it is needed. (See the MagWeb GT
manual for instructions.)
The MicroGT 500 inverters connect with the split-phase grid, and
operate with most 60 and 72-cell PV modules. For more information,
please see the Speci
fi
cations section in this manual.

2.1.1 The MicroGT 500’s Independent DC Inputs
Each MicroGT 500 inverter has two independent DC inputs, each
with independent MPPT control and data monitoring.

A PV system using MicroGT 500 inverters is simple to install (Figure
3). Each MicroGT 500 easily mounts on the PV racking, directly
beneath the PV module(s). Low voltage DC wires connect from the
PV module directly to the MicroGT 500, eliminating the risk of high
DC voltage. Installation MUST comply with local regulations/rules.
