Placement of Solar panels with regards to the sun
Ideally your solar panel should be in direct sunlight for best performance. This means that as much as possible your solar panel should be perpendicular to the direction of the sun rays. In practice this is not easily achievable or convenient and so we recommend that you orient your panels so that they are facing north at about a 45° angle.
See how a solar panel is wired up. Always refer to the user manual included with the solar panels for full set-up instructions and specifications.
