    Abstract: In a detection condition determining method, a control center obtains a working parameter value of a target photovoltaic device in a first time length closest to a current time point, where the working parameter value of the target photovoltaic device may be provided for the control center by a photovoltaic inverter coupled to the target photovoltaic device. The control center detects the target photovoltaic device in response to the control center determining, based on the working parameter value, that an environmental parameter value of the target photovoltaic device meets an environmental parameter threshold. Using the method helps reduce operation and maintenance costs of a photovoltaic power station.

    Abstract: Embodiments of this application disclose an inverter apparatus and an inverter apparatus control method. The inverter apparatus includes an inverter circuit and a control unit, and the control unit detects a driving mode of the inverter circuit based on a running state of the inverter circuit. When the inverter circuit outputs reactive power and an output current amplitude is greater than a current threshold, the control unit controls the inverter circuit in a full-bridge two-level bipolar control mode; and in other cases, the control unit controls the inverter circuit in a three-level control mode. This reduces a risk of breaking down horizontal bridge semiconductor switching devices by a voltage spike in an active turn-off process.
