10 years of ground mounted grid-tie solar. Panels are mounted with a 30.5 degrees pitch. Panels are Canadian Solar CS6P-230P and 20 of them cost $6,624 ($1.44/watt). The grid tie inverter is a Fronius IG4000 which was $2,233. Monthly data of five and a half years of solar production...

I searched the forum for this information but could not find it, so I'd like to post this file (if that is acceptable). It helped me and seems pretty clear and understandable. Hopefully it may help someone else.

Does anyone know how to specify the voltage and amperage rating for replacement bypass diodes? Panels are 230W, Vmp=29.6V, Imp=7.78amps, Voc=36.8V, Isc=8.34A They are 60 cell poly-crystalline and there are 3 diodes. Thanks for your help.

Can use some help in finding an outdoor panel box to mount and wire 2-pole 40 amp DC breaker (PV disconnect). Breaker is NDB2Z-63C40-2 Says it is DIN rail mounted. Would someone please recommend a small, cheap enclosure for this breaker? Panels and inverter are outside in a field. Thank you.

Have two LV2424, each fed with 9 - 230 watt panels; USA off-grid system. NO 240 volt loads, all loads 120 VAC on two separate legs/lines; LV2424's are NOT paralleled split phase. Have 8 - 12volt 100Ah batteries. The question is should these batteries be shared by both LV2424s, 2 in series/4...
