  • 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.
  • If an inverter has For example, say 22A rating per srting, and each string is 9A - means you can combine 2 strings in parallel for 18A total, which is within the 22A rating.
