I believe the parameters for the SolarEdge 43.2 K  inverter are incorrect in the current version (Version 2020.11.29).  This 43.2 KW inverter has the following parameters which appear to be too small.

Paco = 14,510
Pdco = 15,020

The SolarEdge 43.2 KUS  data sheet indicates:

Rated AC Power Output   43,200 Maximum AC Power Output  43,200

Hi Mark,

This appears to be a problem with the data in the CEC database from which we build SAM's inverter library.

Here is a link to that inverter on the CEC Solar Equipment List app showing the incorrect nominal output power:

solarequipment.energy.ca.gov/Home/InvertersList?ManufacturerID=SolarEdge+Technologies+Ltd.&ModelNameID=SE43.2KUS+%5B208V%5D&Submit=Search&Rows=100

A workaround solution is to use the "Inverter Datasheet" option on SAM's inverter page to enter the correct information from the datasheet as described here:

Best regards,
Paul.
