    Question for you lot if you don't mind!

    Do any of you have figures for your annual kWh generation on a 3.68kWp capped inverter? What is your generation capacity pre-inverter, i.e. do you have 4, 5, 6, 10 kw of panels?

    Thanks!

    My PV system has produced 21000kWh over 6 years:T
    My signature gives all the details, as do many others;)

    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).
