Width
Short side of the module
Unit m
What it is
The short side of the module in metres. Width times height is the module area used for the efficiency and for the thermal mass per square metre.
Typical values and how to get it
About 1.0 to 1.3 m; from the datasheet outline. Library entries without dimensions carry a nominal outline that matches their area. If not given: the module runs on the PVWatts DC model, which does not read it. The one-diode models need it: a request that names one of them without it is refused.
