Hi there,
Do any of you experienced chaps know what would the likely maximum module temperature would be in the uk? I am just checking the compatibility of various modules with an inverter and have hit a snag. The panel i have selected works fine until the max temperature goes over 35 deg C. I would guess that module temp would be in excess of ambient temp but Im not sure by how much. Of course I dont want to install something that wont work when it gets too hot but on the other hand there is little point searching for a panel which works up to 75 deg C when we are very unlikely to ever see such temperatures. From testing our panels before installing I have never seen one above 25 deg c but then I would expect it to rise considerably when installed with the sun shining on it all day.
Your thoughts would be appreciated.
