# This example demonstrates how to use diffuse fraction estimation methods to
1111
# obtain direct and diffuse components from measured global horizontal
12-
# irradiance (GHI). PV systems are often tilted to optimize performance, so the
13-
# entire diffuse sky dome may not be visible to the PV surface. Determining the
14-
# total irradiance incident on the plane of the array requires transposing the
15-
# diffuse component, but irradiance sensors such as pyranometers typically only
12+
# irradiance (GHI). Irradiance sensors such as pyranometers typically only
1613
# measure GHI. Therefore pvlib provides several correlations to estimate the
1714
# diffuse fraction of the GHI, that can be used to resolve the diffuse and
1815
# direct components.
