Abstract
The average Time To Failure (TTF) of PV inverters and PV optimizers is investigated in this paper. The focus is on residential and small commercial systems. The data used in this paper includes 1195 PV systems consisting of 2121 inverters and 8542 optimizers. After 15 years, 34.3 percent of systems show a first failure. The most important factors influencing the TTF are the installation location of the inverter, the manufacturer and the inverter topology.
