If you want to do this in eQUEST, they have a default template in the library (ACME Sunsoaker). You could start off with that and modify if needed:

The PV Dialogue box looks like this. You could find the values to fill in from the manufacturers specs (like this one<http://www.suniva.com/documents/OPTXXX-60-4-1B0%2006%2021%2012.pdf> - see page 2). Its actually quite easy to do.

John,
Good to see your still around, old buddy.
If all you need to do is a quick calculation of production, try PV-Watts v.1 or 2. It's an online tool with a minimum of simple inputs. It can also export hourly production if you want to look at potential demand offset.
For performance contracts or a power purchase agreement, our PV engineers use PV-Syst, which requires more inputs and a bit of PV system design knowledge. They then apply a % to the annual production for conservatism so we don't have to write a check for any shortfalls in production.
My best,
Mike

The inputs to this module appear more on the Quantum Physics line.
And I am a poor engineer..
