Questions & answers

How efficient is the Talesun TP7F54M(H) 405?

The Talesun datasheet guarantees at least 20.7% module efficiency for the 405 W class (up to 21% for 410 W). 405 W over 1.95 m² equals about 207 W per square meter.

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

PVWatts v8 with typical-year weather gives about 679 kWh per year per 405 W panel in Los Angeles and about 743 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 3–15 panels per string (Voc at 2 °C = 39.5 V, Vmp at 74 °C cell = 25.1 V). Final design must follow the inverter manual and NEC 690.7.

How big and heavy is it?

67.8 × 44.6 × 1.18 in (1,722 × 1,134 × 30 mm), 47.4 lb (21.5 kg).

Has this panel been reliability-tested?

This exact series is not in published PVEL Top Performer tables; Talesun was named a Top Performer in 5 Scorecards (2017–2025).
