so if I was keeping in my max voltages I still don't see why I couldn't have run different amounts of panels per strings
not that im going to change what I have
and thanks for the reply
agreed unless the inverter has 2 or more separate inverter circuits the amps will only be as high as the lowest bank unless they have anti freed back protection.
running panels in east west you can have more panels and longer feed in time but lower peak watts.
4 kw panels on 3 kw inverter max input around 3kw hopefully
