Abstract :
This paper describes a data acquisition system (DAS) used to monitor the large photovoltaic power system mounted on the roof of the Georgia Tech Aquatic Center (USA). An example of the data collected from the DAS is given in an example monthly report of the PV system´s performance. This report also describes a diagnostic application of this data
