 Note that in this example the Power (W) rating is 190, which is the Vmp x Imp (28.60 x 6.64 = 189.904W).
-In real world conditions [[electrical:solar:output|power output will likely be less]] than under optimal lab conditions and the **Vmp may not be at 28.6v**.  Vmp will vary due to local conditions like temperature, shade, and sunshine.  An [[electrical:solar:charge_controller|MPPT charge controller]], if present, will sweep the range of voltages regularly to find Vmp under the existing conditions.

 Panels will get closest to their rated output at ambient temperatures around 32f/0f when the panels will be running about 85F.  By the time ambient temperatures are 90F panel temps will rise to 145F and power output will drop about 18.45%.((http://digivation.com.au/solar/tempderate.php))
