Determining Efficiency

• Inverter output power:

• STC array power (watts) [STC = 1000 W/^2 and 25 C] ×
mismatch and dust factor (0.9) × array temperature factor (0.885
at 46 C) × wiring efficiency (0.97) × inverter efficiency (0.94) ×
orientation factor (from table).
• For a south-facing array with no shade:
• STC array power × 0.9 × 0.885 × 0.97 × 0.94 × 1,
• STC array power × 0.72
