    1 full one today. Not an "O":(.... 1kWh or 0.25 O's:rotfl:

  • Another crap day 0.14 jus to make sure i'm getting this right when you say kWp = the rated output of your PV system is this the theoretical or what has been calculated for where I live.

    On my MCS cert I have
    Installed Capacity 4.00kW
    Declared Net capacity 3.68kW
    And Est Annual Generation 3374 kWh

    So am I right for O's its daily measurement/3.68

    today 0.508/3.68 = 0.14 O

    tks
    4 kWp System, South East Facing, 35 Degree Pitch, 11 x 250W Panels, South West Facing, 35 Degree Pitch, 5 x 250W Panels, Solar Edge Inverter, Staffordshire Installed 25/11/14

    It 'could be you' the morrow..... smiley-shocked013.gifsmiley-laughing025.gif

    0.88 O's for I.....coffee.gif

    Edit: Hi Ziggy,
    I would have thought Installed Capacity 4.00kWp so 0.127 O's. was the 0.508 taken from your generation meter or the inverter? Should be from the meter......coffee.gif
