The rule of thumb is to size your inverter 1.25 bigger than your solar array. In some cases, you may need to use multiple inverters to meet your power needs or increase your system’s voltage. This practice, known as inverter stacking, involves connecting multiple inverters in parallel or series. [pdf]
