Prepare the inverter specification, quantity and US destination before you ask for factory quotes.

VoltPath Sourcing, an independent desk for inverter quotes

We help business buyers describe an inverter requirement, request factory responses, and compare the replies. Begin with rated power, the DC operating window and the project application so each respondent answers the same brief.

What you can ask us to collect

  • The application sentence and the configuration family you want quoted
  • Rated AC power, DC input range, MPPT channels, phase and grid voltage
  • Quantity, US destination and the delivery window you hope to discuss
  • A list of drawings, tests and listing files you want bound to the model

We rewrite factory replies into that checklist. We do not stamp them as approved, and we do not pretend a phone call was a factory audit.

Boundaries that stay in writing

Not the manufacturer

VoltPath Sourcing does not build inverters, does not own a production line and does not publish pages as a factory storefront.

Not an authorized channel

We are not a manufacturer or an authorized distributor. If a factory later confirms a channel status, that confirmation belongs to that factory and that model.

Not the engineer of record

Interconnection, structural review and safe installation remain with qualified parties you appoint. Our notes are procurement questions.

Not a price index

No public price list sits behind these pages. A quotation is comparable only after specification, quantity, currency and delivered scope match.

Specification

We freeze the electrical fields before alternate part numbers enter the sheet.

Quantity

We keep spares, gateways and cables on their own lines when you flag them.

Delivered scope

We ask each factory to state freight, duty basis and packaging in the same currency.

Supplier documents

We request model-bound files and label anything still missing.

How a brief moves

You send the application, the ratings you already know, and the blanks you want the factory to fill. We group replies so a missing MPPT count or a silent protocol is visible. If you add an optional budget, include the currency and say whether it is per unit or for the whole order. A preference for high-end, mid-range, budget or undecided steers which commercial band we request. It is not a score of the factory.

Samples, pilot lots and incoming inspection can be named as questions. Lead time on a quotation is a supplier statement, not a delivery commitment from this desk. Payment terms stay commercial points for you to accept or reject.

When two architectures both look plausible, we keep both columns. String equipment may suit an open field. Module-level equipment may suit a shaded canopy. The choice is yours after you see the interface differences, not a slogan we attach to every inquiry.

Read the working steps on supplier matching, browse inquiry cards, and use the procurement brief as a longer checklist. The contact form is the path that actually starts a request.

Start with the fields you already know

Partial briefs are usable. Mark the open items and we will ask factories to address them instead of inventing a specification.
