SMA Sunny Boy 3.6
A conventional two-MPPT string inverter sized for a G98 notification: the datasheet gives a 16A maximum output current at a 3,680W rated power. Its 5,500Wp maximum generator power means a meaningfully oversized array is within spec. Maximum efficiency is 97.0% and the standard warranty is 5 years, with 10 and 15 as options.
