[QUOTE="markc, post: 1148020, member: 15232"] I agree with the above comments from our esteemed fellow member above. Everyone told me I was putting up too many panels, I have 24 x 550w on a 15kW system. Best move I made. I think this is one of those times when it is hard to have too many. Another thing that may be worth thinking about is installing the mounting brackets and wiring for extra panels now, then if your 10 panels are not doing what you want the installation cost of more later will be a lot cheaper and easier. Also, try to mix the orientation, I have mostly faced north in Gauteng but have some on the west side of the roof and it helps in the afternoon in winter. [/QUOTE]
