Was wondering on use of these; Bypass for series and blocking for parallel,,, ball park right?? Blocking are like most MPPT's it seems, voltage can vary (5-150) for example only,, but current is more critical? Lets say have 2 panels rated same 200w for 12V system (example only) and each one had a blocking diode at + side for shading purposes and to ensure it gets "taken out" of system as long as its shaded? Is that to keep the other panel from sending stray power back through it?
Am looking at a schematic/drawing of a system that has it installed and trying to get it in layman terms without all the formulas and high depth engineering terms..
It would seem that the bypass diodes would be more critical for correct voltage/amperage ratings to make sure power isn't able to take path of least resistance and just bypass panel when not needed to..
