    Bifacial panel question

    You are right about not achieving 8k with one inverter (rated@6500 max ) battery choice basically was chosen because of watching Will videos for some time , I liked it's features , and I needed simplicity instead of building one cheers

    Bifacial panel question

    I'm starting with the two inverters for 240vac , I'm populating all four pv inputs with just four panels in series , then I have room for upgrades on solar arrays , I tried various panels in a series of 5 but couldn't get the maximum kw output without going over voltage with the coldest temp I...

    Bonding and Grounding Solar Components

    my thoughts are your first panel that the solark is supplying power to, is considered main panel , therefore it needs to be bonded to the ground rods , and all other equipment should be bonded by a bonding wire to the main panel

    Bonding and Grounding Solar Components

    my local jurisdiction required me to drive 2 ground rods at each location of a sub panel even though all sub panels are bonded to the main panel , all the sub panels have isolated neutrals ,personally to me the bonding is what's important

    lv6548

    lv6548

    yeah current is high , I emailed them and included spec sheet of panels and calculator result and they said okay on amps , more importantly to stay below voc.. honestly the results on the spec sheet are done in a perfect environment so i tend to think the nmot results are more of a real life...
