[QUOTE="Bigvanish, post: 543869, member: 36268"] That’s a great tool, thank you. thanks for the heads up on the Easy Pv tool. I had a play and it’s a really straight forward tool to use. In terms of the the temperature calculations. My inverter is a Solis 6kw hybrid inverter with a maximum DC input voltage from the PV Array of 600v and 8000w. It can get pretty cold up in the North of Scotland. I used a temperature as low as -20 and I am calculating a maximum voltage of 550v or so on such conditions. Below the maximum input voltage. I have looked also at temperatures up to 35 degrees Celsius but if my reckoning is correct we are still within voltage and amp limits. I think under bright and ideal operating conditions I should be sitting towards the upper end of the Solis data sheets indicated input limits for voltage and amp and for the most part sitting mid to upper end of comfortable operating numbers. I certainly hope my sums make sense. The entire process has been a 6 month research programme that has consumed my spare time!🫣 [/QUOTE]
