Wrong Inverter Specs was created by scratloup
I am simulating a system using Enphase M125-60-2LL-S2x microinverters.

The specs in the "Inverter CEC Database" appear to be wrong.  The datasheet  shows a max operating input DC voltage range of 16 - 48V, but the database shows the max input voltage as 36V. 

Other than spec'ing the inverter using the "Inverter Datasheet" option, which I find a little daunting given my inexperience with this type of simulation, can someone correct the specs on this inverter and publish a new database?  Many other similar Enphase products also seem to have this problem as well, according my casual scan of the database and spec sheets.

Regards,
-Ron

Hi Ron,

The data in SAM's inverter library comes from the California Energy Commission:

www.gosolarcalifornia.ca.gov/equipment/inverters

We update the library each time we release a new version of SAM, so the data in the library is from the date of the last release.

If you want to use different data than what is in the library, I'm afraid the best option is to use SAM's inverter datasheet option to enter the parameters yourself.

Best regards,
Paul.
