Abstract

Embodiments herein disclose an apparatus for a modular PV system. The apparatus may include a wire box coupled to an alternating current (AC) system through an AC bus and to both a first direct current (DC) power source and a second DC power source through a conduit; a first inverter having a first chassis attached to the wire box and being coupled to the first DC power source through the wire box, the first inverter comprising a first pass-through channel and a second pass-through channel; and a second inverter having a second chassis attached to the first chassis and being coupled to the second DC power source through the first pass-through channel and the wire box, wherein the first chassis and the second chassis are separate chassis.
