What is the operation mode of the step-up transformer in photovoltaic power generation?
1 Overview of Photovoltaic Power Generation ProcessIn my daily work as a frontline operation and maintenance technician, the photovoltaic power generation process I encounter involves connecting individual solar panels into photovoltaic modules, which are then paralleled through combiner boxes to form a photovoltaic array. Solar energy is converted into direct current (DC) by the photovoltaic array, then transformed into three-phase alternating current (AC) via a three-phase inverter (DC-AC). Su
