What does Inverter Oversized mean?

As the name implies, the inverter(s) are too large for the energy production of the field. However, there could be a couple reasons for this:

  • Inverter is simply too large
    • The first, simpliest, cause is that the inverter's rated AC power is far greater than the field's rated DC power. If this is the case, either choose a smaller inverter, or delete the field and manually expand a larger field to include that area (this is a workaround that will be fixed once we introduce wiring zones).
  • Mods per string is incorrect
    • If the number of modules per string is not properly set, it can cause low energy production. As a result of underproducing, the inverter will be oversized. To fix this, set the number of modules per string to a number within the recommended range (or click the "magic wand" icon to do so automatically).
