Vmp: 42.

00 V
THigh: 45° C
Trise 32° C
TStc 20° C
Coef: -0.36° C
Vmin = (Vmp + ((THigh + TRise - TStc) x (VmpCoef x Vmp/100)))

Vmin= 33.38 V

Next we should factor in system loses (de-rate factor).  We forgo this calculation for the purp

de rate factor: 0.88

Vmin= 29.38

We can now take our result from the above calculations to determine the bare minimum number of
by our Vmin.

from Inverter Datasheet:- 120

The minimum number of modules in series can be a low as 4
Now we can calculate the maximum number of modules that we can have in our system by d

Vmax = Voc + ((TLow - TStc) x (VocCoef x Voc/100))

Voc 50.8
Tlow 12° C
TStc 20° C
VocCoef 0.26

Vmax= 55.03

Now, divide our result by the maximum DC system voltage of the chosen inverter and round

The maximum number of modules in series can be as much as
