Array and layout
Nineteen Jinko 440W panels make up the 8.36kW array, installed in a single run along the main roof. The property sits among mature gums, and panel placement on a site like this is as much about where the roof stays clear through the day as about where the most space is.
Our guide to what size solar system you need covers how roof space and household usage set array size.
A SolarEdge inverter
The system uses a SolarEdge 10kW inverter. SolarEdge systems work at the individual panel level rather than treating the whole string as one unit, which matters more on roofs where conditions are not uniform across the array.
The inverter and its isolator are wall-mounted and labelled with a shutdown procedure. Solar panel installation covers how we match inverters to a site.
