Powerelements in SMA Solar inverters

Wherever electricity is used, Powerelements are needed. This also applies to inverters, which have the task of converting the direct current generated by the photovoltaic modules into alternating current.

For more than 20 years, the renowned manufacturer SMA Solar has been using power elements from Würth Elektronik ICS for voltage supply and conversion in its solar, hybrid and battery inverters as well as in the charging systems for electric vehicles.
