pvdeg.standards.standoff_x(weather_df, meta, tilt, azimuth, sky_model, temp_model=None, conf_0=None, conf_inf=None, T98=None, x_0=None, wind_factor=None, model_kwarg={})[source]#

Calculate a minimum standoff distance for roof mounded PV systems.

Will default to horizontal tilt and return only that value. It just passes through the calling function and returns a single value.

Parameters:

documentation (See Standoff())

Returns:

x (float [cm]) – Minimum installation distance in centimeter per IEC TS 63126 when the default settings are used. Effective gap “x” for the lower limit for Level 1 or Level 0 modules (IEC TS 63216)
