A detection method and a related apparatus. Whether a first converter and a second converter are connected to a same combiner device is determined by determining an output port voltage signal of the first converter and an output port voltage signal of the second converter, so that first information or second information is generated and notified to staff. Generally, if a first converter and a second converter in a combiner system are not connected to a same combiner device, it may be considered as that a wire connection of the first converter or the second converter is incorrect. In the detection method and the related apparatus, whether there is a wiring error in the combiner system of the converters can be quickly and accurately determined in an application scenario in which voltage information at a combiner point cannot be obtained.
