Newbie question time but i need to know,
Juat had 10 x 295w panels fitted and all seems well but i dont get how our system only produces 13amps max when its showing 3000watts on a good day. The panelz are 9amp each so why does the inverter show 350volts but only 11 or 12 amp max on ac or dc ?

Just want to say hi to you all, and thank you in advance for any advice im given on here.. im a mom to 4 boys just after the odd bit of help/advice as having to learn diy by myself.
