Installed 20pcs 240watts panels tilted at 10degrees to get maximum sunlight among other efforts. apparently im only getting 2900watts, going through my calculations i find it lacking. 20panels x 240watts each should be 4800watts therefore theres a 1900 difference. a large difference if you ask me. I got nothing that blocks the sunlight from hitting my panels. I check the readings at around 10:30am to 2pm and the weather i must say is immensely hot like around 115F. Is this normal?
 
hey, i want to help. can you give me more info regarding the environmental conditions and connections? i also feel the need to ask if you have adequate mppt capacity? mppt charge controllers are only able to generate based on the available load after all.

anyway that difference is quite huge. it should work at around an 80 percent output when the conditions are fit.

either way i suggest you check whether you can add another mppt. :) that's all i can think of.
