Phew, no wooden spoon for me then with my 0.25 O's(combined too)
Here you go Oscar
2 kWp SEbE , 2kWp SSW & 2.5kWp NWbW.....in sunny North Derbyshire17.7kWh Givenergy battery added(for the power hungry kids)0 -
Regarding the"O". Is it a recognised and commonly used measurement or is it used for the convenience of this Message Board? Where it is defined other than in posters' signatures.
Presumably the kVp is the estimated A/C RMS output from the inverter (or in my case combination of inverters).I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".0 -
Hiya ST, it's just a joke/slang/shorthand on here for kWh/kWp. The O stands for Oscars, as Oscargrouch was keen to standardise generation reports.
Mart.Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

Ooooopps; put the decimal point in the wrong place yesterday; should have read 00.2 O's.......Oscargrouch wrote: »No Problem; how does 0.02 O's sit......Phew, no wooden spoon for me then with my 0.25 O's(combined too)

Sorry, have to return this: see if Leggo wants it for a while......
To be accurate, it should be the converted read from the Gen Meter as inverters often tell porkeys... 1.88 O's today, for sure for sure.....Sterlingtimes wrote: »Regarding the"O".
