David,

This is for grid-tied carport structures which may be installed in several
locations on the East Coast where the minimum temperature varies from 5
degrees F to -20 degrees F and I would like to maintain one standard system
for each situation.  Three strings of 12 modules fit the carport exactly and
work well to 5 degrees but then the cold puts the voltage over 600.  I could
do 4 strings of 9 but then the high temperatures in summer cause the
inverters to drop out due to low voltage.

I could do three strings of 11 and have 3 dummy panels but would like to
avoid this kluge.

Thanks!

Lee
