I have the enphase microinverters here on a 5kw system that is right in the
middle of the antenna farm. I have had no intereference issues with it at
all. I can take a receiver and when the antenna is almost touching the
panels and wiring I can pick up some broadband hash, but that is no worse
than my power line in general. The plc that it uses is a narrow band 144khz
system for collecting data from the panels, the only problem with it is the
limited range, if the panels are far (>200') from the house it may not work.
