where odd branches from a tree on the W side cause large drops in output which sometimes recover.
Is it correct that PO is the preferred option ignoring cost?
Thanks.
The preferred option there is a chainsaw, much cheaper than SE and less to go wrong!(I am having a laff in case you didn't get it)2 kWp SEbE , 2kWp SSW & 2.5kWp NWbW.....in sunny North Derbyshire17.7kWh Givenergy battery added(for the power hungry kids)0 -
If you have a SMA inverter it might have Global Optitrac, which seems to do pretty much what they claim it does. I have it one my Sunnyboy 4000 but had to turn it on. it is not on the 1600 inverter, unfortunately as that is where the worst shade is.0
