Advanced Energy

(formerly PV Powered)

Advanced Energy PVP inverter

Advanced Energy's PV Powered line of residential and small commercial grid-tie inverters deliver high reliability and technical innovations designed to lower the total cost of PV systems installation. Founded in Bend, Oregon, in 2003 and recently acquired by Advanced Energy, PV Powered inverters are engineered to operate for 20+ years.

Each inverter comes with an integrated AC/DC PV system disconnect that is listed to the UL 98 Standard (called "Enclosed and Dead-front Switches") which ensures that the integrated disconnect meets all installation and inspection requirements of a PV system disconnect. Housed within an NEC compliant wire raceway, PV Powered's innovative disconnect consists of one enclosure with ample working room for installation. In addition to providing for a single point of connection from the utility service and PV array, the wire raceway's optimized knockout locations also provide options for side, bottom and back entry with minimized conduit bending. The wire raceway enables flush side-by-side mounting, eliminating the need for extra equipment and resulting in a cleaner, less expensive installation.

All PV Powered inverters are field-configurable for positive ground applications with a simple jumper selection.

Made in USA and ARRA compliant. ETL Listed to UL 1741 for the U.S and Canada.

10-year warranty with compensation for replacement labor.

PVM1010 Data Monitoring Module

The PVM1010 provides secure, web-based access to your system's status and performance history to maximize your system uptime. The PVM1010 along with the secure internet-based server operated by Advanced Energy is equivalent to a standalone data logging meter and communication interface without the cost and inconvenience of installation and maintenance of a separate metering system. With registration you get access to inverter information from anywhere you can connect to the internet. Reports of power output and energy production trends, local weather conditions and forecasts, verification that your system is working at its full potential and collection and export of data for service and maintenance planning are all included at no charge. Just install the PVM1010 in each inverter to be monitored and connect to a router with Cat 5 cable.

You can also order the PVM1010 pre-installed by adding "-M" to the end of the item code. These options are listed in the table below.
