The user has the ability to define shading profiles on the prediction level. A shading profile defined here will be applied to the whole prediction, unless the option is Module File Defined Shading, in which case the prediction will defer to the module file used.

The shading profile options here are:

a) None

b) Linear

c) Fractional Electrical Shading

d) c-Si 3-diode Shading

e) Module File Defined Shading

Refer to the Models and Algorithms section for a detailed breakdown of each option.
