So are all Steca inverters compatible through appropriate software settings?

Many other inverters are also configurable in this way, and if you get permission in advance (which is usually forthcoming) you may be able to send a screenclip of the settings and get approval for connection.

But increasingly other inverters are coming on stream. Aurora (Power One) are in the process of certifying their main units and their 2kw and 2.5kw UNO range are already certified. I understand some other brands of micro-inverter are also in the process of getting certified.
