As I'm in the market to replace my single phase inverter I found this growatt model. If I understand correctly, I currently have 8 panels at 20.2voc and this can handle 250voc but I plan to go to 24 panels, which I think I would have to in order to take advantage of the full wattage it can provide. That being side my current 8 panels would be 161.6v and 12 would be 242.4 which would be just inside the limit and I would have to be careful of temperature fluctuations that would change the voltage. So, if I wanted 24 panels it would have to be 2 strings that are in parallel so that the voltage wouldn't go beyond the 250voc. They must not have linked the right manual, or I'm reading it wrong because the manual still states 150voc?
Now, if I added more panels later I really need to make sure that voltage per panel doesn't go beyond 20.2 because it's getting very close to that cutoff line of 250voc, right? My current panels are 195w, but I saw a 250w panel with 22v, that would be a problem, wouldn't it?
