Defaults come from NLR TMY weather (coldest hour, hottest modeled cell). Code calculations (NEC 690.7) use the ASHRAE extreme annual minimum, which is usually colder — enter it above. β is the CEC-measured coefficient; NEC 690.7 calculations use the datasheet value.

Questions & answers

How efficient is the VSUN (Vietnam Sunergy) VSUN320-60M?

Calculated from the panel area (1.61 m²): about 19.2% for the 320 W class. 320 W over 1.61 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 536 kWh per year per 320 W panel in Los Angeles and about 587 kWh in Palmdale (20° roof, facing south, 14% system losses).

How much power does it lose on a hot roof?

With γ = −0.370 %/°C, at a 77 °C cell temperature (hottest modeled hour in Palmdale) output is about 19.2% 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 3–13 panels per string (Voc at 2 °C = 43.1 V, Vmp at 74 °C cell = 26.7 V). Final design must follow the inverter manual and NEC 690.7.

What does the warranty cover?

30 years linear on performance (manufacturer datasheet).

Has this panel been reliability-tested?

This exact series is not in published PVEL Top Performer tables; VSUN (Vietnam Sunergy) was named a Top Performer in 6 Scorecards (2021–2026). RETC named VSUN (Vietnam Sunergy) Overall Highest Achiever in 2025, 2026.
