Humm i have been asked to replace a damaged solar panel on existing 10KW system, however existing panel installed is no longer available dispite many enquires we are unable to get hold of a like for like panel.
System is currently configured in Series 4 strings, 2 of 10 panels and 2 of 9 panels on an eversol 10000TL inverter
My question is, if I replace 1 of the panels from one of the strings of 9 with an alterrnative panel (obviously the (voc and isc) will be different but will this just effect the performance of the other 8 panels on that string? i.e bring all down to the lowest current rating or will this have a bigger effect?
I am under impression that voltage will just accumilate as normal on that individual string but current will be reduced to the lowest rated?? If i am correct I will have 3 normal strings with 3 normal power outputs and 1 slightly reduced string which can be worked out by p=V x I?
Is there any thing else to consider/am i missing anything else?
