Thanks so much for this Is there harm in oversizing your solar panels to improve absorption on cloudy days? Eg a 650w panel for an inverter designed for 550 watt max solar input. Will there be risk on a sunny day when 650 watt is actually absorbed by the solar panel? My inverter has a built in solar charge controller.
Just came across this video as I am new to investigating solar systems. In order to get a good south facing array out from under trees I would have to put my array down in my pasture about 600 yards away from the house. What kind of voltage and wire gauge would I need to go that far?
@ SolarPVOutlaws I have 2*110Ah leisure batteries in parallel connection. I want solar panels to charge the batteries and for that i am considering 3*160watts MONOCRYSTALLINE solar panels and a MPPT charger. what Amp of MPPT charger do i need to buy to support these 3 solar panels and do I connect the solar panel in series connection with each other? Details of the solar panels that I am going for is: Watt: 160 open circuit voltage (VOC): 23 max power volt (vmp): 7.7 short circuit current (ISC): 10 max power current (Imp): 9.5
Hi, how much 375w panels (38v and 11amps) can I connect to a 5kw hybrid inverter with 145VOC Inverter Output Waveform: Pure Sine-Wave. Rated Power: 5000VA/5000W. Parallel Capability: Yes, 6 units. AC Voltage Regulation (Battery Mode): 230VAC ± 5% @ 50/60Hz. Surge Power: 10000VA. Efficiency (Peak): 93%. Transfer Time: 10 ms (For Personal Computers); 20 ms (For Home Appliances). Solar Charger Maximum PV Array Power: 4500W. MPPT Range @ Operating Voltage: 60VDC ~115VDC. Standby Power Consumption: 2W. Maximum PV Array Open Circuit Voltage: 145VDC. Maximum Efficiency: 97%. Maximum Solar Charge Current: 80A. AC Charger Charge Current: 60A. AC Input Voltage: 230 VAC. Selectable Voltage Range: 170-280 VAC (For Personal Computers); 90-280 VAC (For Home Appliances). Frequency Range: 50Hz/60Hz (Auto sensing).

It is very useful because I can understand it through pictures. thank you
