Another question re ettiquette. My panels are E-W facing and I have over sized my panels relative to the inverter. So my kWp is technically 4.25, but my inverter is 3.6kW. Which should I use for the denominator for Os?4.3kW PV, 3.6kW inverter. Octopus Agile import, gas Tracker. Zoe. Ripple x 3. Cheshire0 -
You go with the panel kWp.
I've got 5.25kWp on the roof, all SW facing, with a 3.6W inverter, I'll never get to "heaven" but it's surprising how well you can do even with a fair few hours clipping.
Barnsley, South Yorkshire
