Hi. I may add a TL-WPA4220KIT in a estate, but it may will use a self-consumption isolated from the grid power system in the future, instead having power from the grid.

Do PLC devices work fine under those power networks? Will the inverter be in danger because it may not be designed to filter the PLC signals?

Thanks in advance.

The TP-Link powerline adapters work within the 3-30MHz frequency, you can contact the support of the inverter to confirm whether it can handle. 

 

Besides, you can ask them whether it is okay to locate a powerline adapter.

@Bross 

 

For your information, it is suggested to use the powerline adapters under the same power circuit. 

 

If there will be a self-consumption isolated from the grid power system in the future, but still use the original power circuit and no wave filter, the powerline adapter should be working fine. 

 

But we have to say that we haven't tested before, if you want to use the powerline adapter, you can confirm the warranty policy before you purchase it, if it does not work, you can return it within a certain time of period.

@Kevin_Z Thank you! But the most important thing I want to know is if the PLC will damage the inverter. Can you confirm that it won't happen?
