Questions & answers

How efficient is the JinkoSolar JKM395M-72HL-TV?

Calculated from the panel area (1.98 m²): about 19.9% for the 395 W class. 395 W over 1.98 m² equals about 199 W per square meter.

How much energy does one panel produce in Los Angeles or Palmdale?

PVWatts v8 with typical-year weather gives about 662 kWh per year per 395 W panel in Los Angeles and about 725 kWh in Palmdale (20° roof, facing south, 14% system losses).

How much power does it lose on a hot roof?

With γ = −0.35 %/°C, at a 77 °C cell temperature (hottest modeled hour in Palmdale) output is about 18.1% below the STC rating.

How many panels fit on one string?

With the Tesla 1538000-xx-y (max DC 600 V, MPPT from 60 V, datasheet) in Los Angeles the calculator gives 2–11 panels per string (Voc at 2 °C = 51.5 V, Vmp at 74 °C cell = 32.1 V). Final design must follow the inverter manual and NEC 690.7.

Does it work with Enphase IQ8PLUS-72-2-US microinverters?

Voltage check against the Enphase datasheet: Voc when cold 51.5 V vs max input 60 V; Vmp when hot 32.1 V vs MPPT low 29 V; recommended module power 235–440 W. Confirm on the microinverter maker’s compatibility list.

What does the warranty cover?

30 years on performance (manufacturer datasheet).

Is it bifacial?

Yes, bifaciality 70 ± 5%. Rear gain depends on mounting height and ground reflectance.

Has this panel been reliability-tested?

JKMxxxM-72HL-TV was a PVEL Top Performer in 2022, 2023 (DH, LID+LETID, PAN, PID).
