I thought running an inverter at its max capacity was worse then running it at a lesser load and it would run cooler.
i just read this and is this correct, that running an inverter at its peak is more efficient ?
and if the inverter is larger than the array output that it would produce less electricity than the smaller inverter running at peak ?
Thanks.

"On the other hand, you don't want to install a solar inverter that's too big (i.e. has a lower array-to-inverter ratio) because your inverter is going to be most efficient if it's running close to its overall capacity. If the inverter is too large compared to the array, it will not produce the desired amount of electricity."
