Module-Level Clipping
Module-level clipping occurs when power is capped at each individual module instead of at the combined array level.

What does Module-Level Clipping mean?
Module-level clipping occurs when power is capped at each individual module instead of at the combined array level.
Why can module-level clipping be costly?
If one module is producing strongly while another is shaded or on a different roof face, per-module caps can prevent the strong module from contributing its full potential. The system loses energy locally rather than letting the array balance itself as a group.
How it relates to Tigo
Tigo DC optimizers manage module performance without converting each module to AC, which helps preserve DC architecture benefits.
