All parameters given, residential module with small inverter
String Sizing
Calculates the maximum and minimum number of PV modules per string by applying temperature coefficients to open-circuit and maximum-power-point voltages at site extremes, per AS/NZS 5033 and IEC 62548. Cold-corrected Voc must not exceed the inverter maximum DC voltage, and hot-corrected Vmp must remain above the inverter minimum MPPT tracking voltage.
