400 photovoltaic panel size

A typical 400-watt solar panel is 79.1 inches long and 39.1 inches wide. It takes up 21.53 sq ft of area. If you have a 1000 sq ft roof, and you can use 75% of that roof area for solar panels, you can theoretically put 34 400-watt solar panels on a 1000 sq ft roof. [pdf]
