FAQs about DC combiner box and number of PV strings

How many PV string inputs can a combiner box support?

A standard combiner box supports 6–24 PV string inputs, with typical current per string ranging from 10–20A. Key features include: Reverse current protection is essential when module shading or mismatched strings cause imbalance. 2. Multiple Layers of Electrical Safety Protection These protection layers significantly reduce system downtime.

What is a combiner box?

A combiner box is a key DC distribution device used between PV strings and the inverter. Each string consists of solar modules wired in series, and the combiner box gathers multiple strings into a single output while ensuring safety and system efficiency. Current Collection: Consolidates DC output from 6–24 strings into busbars.

What is a PV combiner box?

In every photovoltaic (PV) system, stable power generation relies on more than panels and inverters. Hidden behind the scenes is a critical piece of equipment: the PV combiner box. Though easy to overlook, this device plays a decisive role in current collection, circuit safety, surge protection, and intelligent monitoring.

How many strings can a solar combiner box hold?

Solar combiner box manufacturers often make boxes that can accommodate 3 strings or more. In order to size the box correctly, determine the number of strings in your system, and use that to find the minimum box size. The box is also sized based on the string voltage and current levels.
