Cable Sizing Problem

[NWI]

When sizing the AC cabelling the cross-section has to be choosen by a drop-down menu, but I'm missing some cross-section needed, i.e 630mm² or 800mm². Is there any way to enter other values to the drop-down? In the help is written that PVSyst uses a formula to calculate the resistance, so there shouldn't be a need to restrict the cross-sections.

Thank you

Hello,

You can only choose from the available cable sections. I suggest selecting the highest section to simulate pessimistic results.

Hi,
Sorry to intrude this topic.
We also often Face this issue.

While it's possible to adjust the loss by changing the length, the end-user will read on the report a value for the thickness that is not the real one and often ask us the reason.

Would it be possible to allow custom sizes or maybe allow to define other sizes in a separate file?

Best regards
