Abstract
A string and load balancer system that provides the ability to boost the string voltage in low-light or reduced-power conditions so that the inverter may continue to operate. The boost operation can be achieved by addition of a single substantially D.C. switch. The DC switch may be rated for the maximum intended voltage boost, not the maximum bus voltage. A string and load balancer provided herein may allow photovoltaic arrays to be productive in mornings, evenings, and in clouded or otherwise sub-nominal conditions.
