Instead, the inverter "clips" the occasional solar power peaks that exceed its wattage. The capacity relationship between a solar array and its inverter is described by the DC-to-AC ratio, also known as the inverter load ratio or ILR. For example, a 10-kW solar array with an 8-kW inverter has a DC-to-AC ratio of 1.25. ...
