Who this helps
Electrical leads validating BOS performance.
What you’ll achieve
Quantified DC losses with conductor sizing to meet ≤0.6% drop.
Tier A — Hands‑on steps
1) Open Cable Losses Analysis.
2) Define strings/feeders from selected rows; set conductor resistivity and temperature.
3) Compute losses; evaluate drop vs threshold; iterate conductor sizes.
How it works / checks
- Uses length × current × resistivity to compute (I^2R) losses and voltage drop at 1500 V DC nominal.
- Aggregates per string and feeder to flag non‑compliant circuits.
QA & pitfalls
- Ambient temperature affects resistivity; set realistic conditions.
- Keep string lengths consistent to simplify combiner balancing.
Outputs & handoff
- Loss report and recommended cable sections for procurement.
