hello all, I am planning on moving to Hawaii and the lot i have purchased is far from utilities. I have been working on a system but am completely lost with these panel data sheets. i am an industrial maintenance tech and most of what i deal with is 480 3 phase power. these sheets have open circuit, short circuit bla bla bla. I realize it is somehow figured on the curve of full sun, no sun, load and no load. my basic question is what set of voltage numbers and amp numbers should i use to configure wiring and fuses and components.
secondary question is i would like to run 2 charge controllers mainly for redundancy since if i have a failure i would rather have 1/2 a working system until it can be repaired. I am wondering if i will loose any efficiency in the panels since the charge controllers are supposed to optimize the panels. I have a small drawing of my plans so far if someone sees a problem please let me know. right now i am using the highest output numbers on the data sheets.
