Power Converter Box and Photovoltaic System

This application provides a power converter box used in a photovoltaic system. The power converter box includes at least two power converters, and the at least two power converters include one primary power converter and at least one secondary power converter. The primary power converter obtains status information of a photovoltaic substring corresponding to a secondary power converter, and sends, to an inverter by using a PLC communication module in the primary power converter, the status information of the photovoltaic substring corresponding to the secondary power converter and status information of a photovoltaic substring corresponding to the primary power converter. The primary power converter further receives, by using the PLC communication module in the primary power converter, control information sent by the inverter, controls, based on the control information, an output power of the photovoltaic substring corresponding to the primary power converter.
