I think I am understanding. I think my confusion was just that when changing DC system size, I wasn't also accounting for the difference in this loss in the overall production as well. Thanks for the explanation

Question is about where the percentage value in the loss diagram for "inverter loss over nominal inv. power" come from? I've run a few simulations comparing actual production losses over a few DC/AC ratios and it does not appear that this particular loss factor scales properly eg. I remove strings to lower the DC/AC ratio and get 2% lower production but this particular loss only drops by about 0.5%. So would the inverter loss actually be simply the total POWER or TIME that the inverter is clipped and not ENERGY losses?
