South-facing solar panel systems almost always generate the most electricity, but east-west roofs can work well for solar, too. The direction is more important than the angle. Angle is rarely a make-or-break factor, and most roof tilts will work fine—though there are some exceptions. [pdf]

String inverters convert DC power from “strings” of PV modules to AC and are designed to be modular and scalable. Smaller string inverters may have as few as one input, with one PV string per input. Larger string inverters can handle many string inputs. [pdf]

Solar panels receive their ratings under specific testing conditions known as "Standard Testing Conditions" or "STCs". These conditions serve as the industry standard for evaluating solar panels, making it easier to compare panels accurately. .
The Wattage rating of a solar panel is the most fundamental rating, representing the maximum power output of the solar panel under ideal conditions. You’ll often see it referred to as “Rated Power”, “Maximum Power”, or “Pmax”,. .
Solar panels come with two Current (or Amperage) ratings that are measured in Amps: 1. The Maximum Power Current, or Imp for short. 2. And the Short Circuit Current, or Isc for. .
Solar panels are classified by their nominal voltages (e.g., 12 Volts or 24 Volts), but these voltages are only used as a reference for. [pdf]
