[QUOTE="binky, post: 527570, member: 490"] less imbalances between the panels - the panels are usual power matched before being sent out to be nigh on indentical in performance, but you do still get small differences and so a single string works at the level of the worst panel. More importantly you may have a very large bird poo, leaves or other dirt on one panel that then affects the entire set of panels. If you have 2 strings and issues like that only affects half the array, it also reduces how much energy is being forced through the bypass diodes of the affected panel - the weak point of the panels, so I prefer to minimise this where possible.
