API field
DC drop reference
Which current the DC wiring voltage drop is computed at
What it is
Selects the current at which the voltage drop of the DC wiring is computed when the model reads the array's current-voltage curve.
Typical values and how to get it
Chosen on the Model tab.
Values
Drop at the MPP current = mpp_current (default): the drop is the wiring resistance times the maximum-power current, the same at every operating point of the timestep · Drop at the operating current = operating_current: the drop is the wiring resistance times the current of the operating point, solved together with it
