Hey everyone first post on the forum, lots of good information on here thank you in advance for input:
I just put up 25 125 watt stion panels (76.5voc, 2.6 amp isc, 2.3amp imp, 54.13V Vmp) and installed my 2500watt sunny boy inverter ac disconnect, combiner, and dc disconnect. I just need to clarify on my panel wiring before hooking everything together for the elctric co op inspection. I was going to run 3 strings in series but have 2 panels in parallel in the first two strings and 4 panels in the last two strings wired as two parallel panels for basically 7 panels per string (if you count the parallel panels as one). I was originally going to just run 8 in series for the first two strings and two panels parallel in series in the last string but the voc calc of 76.5*8=612V which was barely over the 600v rating of the inverter. I also had read to not vary amperage on panels as this can hurt them, is wiring two panels in parallel which will double the amperage going to hurt the rest of the panels in the series string? I just wanted to make sure that this was the correct way to approach this as this is my first install.
