Thanks for the explanation. I will try to use those terms correctly. I do not have a separate charge controller and see the term AC to DC ratio used in GT systems all the time.. I ocassonally see people describe high DC to AC ratios as over paneling or over stringing and now see why that is not correct. I agree the important issue is not to exceed the voltage and current limits of the charge controller when discussing this topic.Granted, some "inverters" (all-in-ones) have a solar charge controller as part of the system but still, over paneling has nothing to do with the inverter portion or its rated output wattage. Two completely different and unrelated ratings.
