RODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Ilumen PID Box Mini is placed between the inverter and the solar array strings. The power
of the strings goes through the PID Box, entering on one side and leaving on the other. This
means the Ilumen PID Box Mini is placed in series between the PV panels and the inverter. You
can use one Ilumen PID Box Mini per 2 MPP trackers.
