I don't see a thread on Solar panel heat so will has my question.
I've started testing my Solar panels output with respect to their temperature as measured with a temperature handheld gun.
Today, for example, the outside temperature in the sun is 70 F degrees, but the panels which are parallel to the ground are measuring 105 f degrees.
My question is, how hot can the solar panels get before it becomes a concern due to heat on the panels and it's performance.
Here in my part of California, the summer temperatures for a few days reach over 112 degrees F. and average 95 degrees. F. all summer.
Is their a heat point on the panels that I will need to dis-engage the panels from my 2424lv controller/inverter?
