New solar setup.

Hello new here,
So to make this quick my setup is 2 x 345 watt panels and a wind 600watt gti, wired parallel, my voltage hovers around 40 at full sun. The wind grid tie is putting out 280watts around noon.
Now my question, is this so low because of the wind grid tie? It seems like the DC voltage would lower more than it is if the grid tie was taking full advantage of the panels?

When you hook up power sources in parallel, the voltages do some averaging.

Are you sure this is the recommended setup, mixing wind and solar in parallel?
If the panels are putting out a higher voltage than the wind, would it back feed to the wind generator?

Sorry to have more questions than answers (ok, no answers). Mostly observations of things that sound suspect.

Thanks for the reply, I took the wind turbine down a while ago, just using the wind grid tie with the two panels.

Is that a charge controller? Have a link to what you have?

Looking back to your original post (it makes more sense now)

Have you checked the volts and amps that the panels are actually producing? If they are producing 500w and the "wind grid tie" is putting out 280, then i would strongly suspect the issue is with the "wind grid tie".
Is the wind grid tie supposed to handle solar? Does it have a voltage input range?

This is what I have attached to the panels atm.
