I noticed that my inverter is not getting any input DC voltage. The voltage between DC+ and DC- initially is 4V and keeps going down to almost negligible.
went up on the roof and checked the junction box and found the same readings.
I am trying to understand where the problem is and have the following questions.
I have 10 modules (panels) in series with each giving 35 V, and hence the ideal DC voltage should have been 350V.
1. What happens if one of the modules is dead. Would that mean 0 DC voltage ?
2. What happens if there is an open connector. Let’s assume negative of panel 4 and positive if panel 5 connection is loose, and creating an open circuit. ? Would that lead to 0 DC voltage ?
