API field

MPPT minimum loss row

Which loss row receives the power lost below the MPPT window

What it is

Selects which loss row receives the power lost when the array voltage sits below the MPPT window.

Typical values and how to get it

Chosen on the Model tab.

Values

Power-limit loss when it would have clipped = would_clip (default): the whole floor loss goes to the power-limit row when the array's maximum power, converted at the floor voltage, exceeds the AC limit, so that the inverter would have clipped, and to the voltage-threshold row otherwise · Count as an MPPT minimum loss = vmin: the floor loss always goes to the voltage-threshold row
