AC power reference

Which power the AC loss fractions refer to

What it is

Selects the power the AC loss fractions are stated against.

Typical values and how to get it

Chosen on the Model tab.

Values

P_nom inverter = pnom_inverter (default): the fractions refer to the total inverter AC nameplate · STC reference power = pnompv_ac_stc: the fractions refer to the array's STC reference power: a DC power, the DC nameplate reduced by the module and string mismatch derates with no inverter efficiency applied, or the value entered in STC reference power (explicit) on the Losses tab
