Start with Determining String Design for an Inverter
Run panels E-W lenghtwise to minimize the runner lengths
Use 2 runners, 2x6 treated lumber, each.
Provide panel dimensions like for example https://wiki.opensourceecology.org/wiki/File:Adani2.png - and ask AI how many can fit in the N-S direction according to the PV Runner Schema. Provide a JPG image for the AI to parse the schema.
For example, if 11 can fit, and string design involves 8 panels (such as 4 strings of 2 panels each), then use 8 panels per sting to simplify the wiring.
Depending on the output of Determining String Design for an Inverter - locate the inverter closest to all the strings.
Locate inverters on opposite sides of workshop (N and S) to minimize wire lengths. Operate
