Hi i have been advised to use an SB 3000 tl inverter with 12 x 300watt panels. I know efficiency and losses etc bring the power down but it seemed a bit small . Any observations please.

12x 300 = 3600W, this is KWP (Kilowatt peak), which is the maximum a system could produce "peak", however due to orientation of the roof, cable and Inverter loses etc, no system can ever "peak" at that maximum, so the calculation is normally 80-85% of KWP.
In my opinion that Inverter would be a perfect match for that size of system, and being a TL Inverter it has good efficiency as-well.
I hope this helps.

Power one 3.0 OUTD will do a much better job. If you can get one.

Systems can always reach their maximum and even go beyond. The reason we generally undersize inverters is due to efficiency sweet spots in the inverters themselves.
