MPPT Voltage Range
The Xantrex XW SCC maximum power point tracking algorithm maximizes the
output energy of PV arrays as long as the operating voltage is within the MPPT
operational window. Ensure that the PV array used in the system operates within
the MPPT operational window.
Effects of array voltages outside of the MPPT operational window are shown in
Table 4-1.
Mounting
The instructions in this section apply to an installation including the power
distribution panel. Installation procedures will vary according to your specific
application. For special applications, consult a qualified electrician or a certified
Schneider Electric dealer.
