3 x 100W panels in series:
Not quite sure what's happening. Panels start putting a charge in each morning.
Panels:14.7V 0.9A Battery 12.9V 0.9A.
If I disconnect panels and then reconnect
Panels: 42V 1A Battery 13V 2.5A

If it clouds over briefly, the panel voltage, understandably drops and the figures revert to something like the original ones but when the cloud clears again, the panel voltage does not change significantly. Disconnecting and reconnecting the panels, again solves the output issue but it would seem that something is amiss.

Any suggestions folks.

I cannot explain what is happening but your latter voltage (42V) suggests that each panel is contributing approximately 14V which seems a bit on the low side (and is remarkably similar to your former voltage).

If I was a betting man, I’d guess that one of your panels is damaged.

A further observation is that your controller is a 10A controller which seems a little on the small side too?

Controller is a 30Amp. Peak voltage has been hitting 55-57V but I am still getting the same symptoms. Just that sun here today was a bit hazy when it wasn't playing hide and seek. I am satisfied that all panels are working correctly.
