I have been following this forum about 2 years gathered a lot of good and very beneficial information. Thanks!
Three tracking arrays=13 kw, array #1, 13-230w with Sunny Boy 3000 gt #2, 22-255 Solar World with Schneider 5000 gt #3, 24-Canadian Solar with another Schneider 5000gt. This is a permitted DIY grid tie with a 600 v dc transfer switch to two Schneider 80-600 charge controllers , large battery bank and a Schneider XW 6848 inverter for grid outage.
The system has performed very well. The past couple weeks I have had a couple 110 kwh days and several 100+ days. The best monthly production is in spring and fall due to summer shading and north/south angle ( about 23 deg. from horizontal ). the best day production was in dead winter, cold, clear skies and some wind .
The tracking is with a timer system,so probably not a true tracker but is in the right place at the right time moves ,it moves12 increments during the day and returns to east at night. The other day both 5000 inverters were maxed out 5080w and the SB 2890w at about 9:30 am.
I will post more info and pictures now that i have gotten this far. I had gotten to this point earlier but was timed out, guess it,s my keyboard pecking.
running out of time now.
