Guys, is this normal? The microinverters shut down too often. Yesterday, I got only half the capacity compared to my neighbor with a string inverter.

Looks like grid overvoltage to me. But how come half the capacity? In what sense?

Is 260.6V too high? This is the grid voltage before it shuts down in 1 of the occurrences.

Edited, missed the 2nd part.
I'm getting 15kw while my neighbor, 26kw.

If i'd received the welcome letter, does it mean i'm already eligible for the rebate even if the rebate email comes later, after 30 Apr?

Frankly, I'm not sure. Probably the others can help to answer on my behalf.

after asking around for quotations, shortlisting Verdant and PG i guess. I'm just going to opt for regular string inverter for simplicity and cost. Both quotes for 14 panels / 8.68 kWp. seems they're both using same panel, just different inverter.

verdant quote:
PG quote:
hmmm PG have the better package, cheaper, longer workmanship warranty. but maintenance after free period is RM700 per year. yeesh is that common?
verdant have so many good reviews though. the way they work with me so far feels efficient & fast engagement.
but yeaa... price-wise, PG seems to be the winner.

Regarding the maintenance, did they really come every year to do the inspection and clean the solar panel during the free period?

Just wondering my system 7.45kwp , is 22 kWh per day is normal or not

Feel is not worth it
Or pathgreen solar panel are lower grade

Mine, from PG too. 7.38kW system. The highest ever generated was 42.07kWh on that particular day.

The micro inverter can peak out at 2.04kW per micro inverter or 6.12kW max for all 3 micro inverters. It won't go any higher.

Not every day will have this number. That's the peak generation.
