having had a closer inspection today it is more clear. Each string goes back to the isolator and not 4 cables to the inverter as i initially said, where it then comes out as one feed to the inverter. A local installer i spoke to earlier in the week, suggested i spoke with SMA to be sure and...

Will do some research on these for my grid tied system at home. Do they affect the agreement with the energy company ? If so, do you know if they (EDF ) are receptive to applications for these to be added ? thanks

Thanks John. It is strange. There are 4 mc4 cables running to the inverter. I will see if i can get a better look at the input to the Inverter today. It seems to me that 10 panels would be within the optimum range but the 4 wouldnt yet be above the start up voltage on their own but the west face...

i cant but the info is - Model no- Suntech STP190S-24/AD+. Max power 190w. Current at Pmax 5.2A. Voltage at Pmax 36.6V. Short circuit current 5,62A. Open circuit Voltage 45.2V. Max system Voltage 1000V. Maximum series fuse rating 15A

the 14 were arranged in 2 strings of 7 so has 2 inputs

Hello. we are in Cornwall and had to remove 14 South facing panels for building modifications. We can now only get 10 on a West facing slope and 4 on the East. Should i have 2 equal strings of 5 from the West face in series with 2 from the East or, a string of 7 on the west face and a second...
