I get asked this question all the time from friends, family, and potential new customers...."How come I am only getting 1.5 kW from my 7.2 kW solar system?

That does not always mean something is wrong.

Your system’s 7.2 kW rating is its max output under ideal conditions. Actual production changes throughout the day based on weather, sun angle, season, shade, and temperature. On top of that, home demand, battery charging, and grid export can all affect what your monitoring app shows.

The number on the screen is only part of the story.
The real question is: Is your system performing correctly for that moment?
