I'm now running my EG4-6500 system.
I need to stay under 450vdc (Max Voc).
Running 8 Solarever 455w panels per string. On the panels Voc is 49.3v.
8x49.3= 394 I wanted to give a safety factor so I stopped at 8 / string.
It's 12 deg F outside and I'm only getting 349v from each string. 349/8= 43.6v
Would it be safe to add 1 more panel ? 9x43.6= 392v
I thought the Voc was supposed to increase in cold weather but I'm not seeing that.
FYI this is with the panels connected to the EG4 and under load.
