01
Target System Capacity
Calculates the required kW system based on monthly consumption.
PSH represents the equivalent number of hours per day when solar irradiance averages 1,000 W/m². A higher PSH means you need a smaller kW system to generate the same amount of daily energy, greatly impacting your ROI.
This is known as the DC-to-AC ratio or inverter oversizing. Panels rarely operate at peak test conditions due to heat and losses. Oversizing the DC array (typically 1.1 to 1.3 ratio) ensures the inverter operates closer to its maximum efficiency more often.
Cable sizes are calculated by comparing the continuous current (multiplied by safety factors) against standard ampacity charts for copper cables, while factoring in distance to minimize voltage drop.
The optimal fixed tilt angle is generally equal to your location's latitude. The calculator automatically suggests the best tilt angle when you select your country and city.
