Photovoltaic inverter protective cover production

Why do PV farms need inverters?

PV farms are comprised of very sensitive equipment that needs expansive protection. Because PV farms create direct current (dc) power, inverters (which are necessary to convert this power from dc to ac) are an essential component to their electrical production.

What causes PV isolation protection?

The causes of "PV Isolation Protection" are mainly divided into three categories: external environmental factors (increased environmental humidity), system factors (poor system ground insulation), inverter factors (DC line insulation detection and protection threshold is too small).

How to choose an inverter for a grid connected PV system?

When specifying an inverter, it is necessary to consider requirements of both the DC input and the AC output. For a grid connected PV system, the DC input power rating of the inverter should be selected to match the PV panel or array.

How efficient is a PV inverter?

Modern inverters commonly used in PV power systems have peak efficiencies of 92-94%, but these again are measured under well-controlled factory conditions. Actual field conditions usually result in overall DC – to - AC conversion efficiencies of about 88-92%. 4.1.2. Duty Rating

What does PV iso-pr01/02 mean?

It’s screen displays the error message of "PV ISO-PR01/02". Reason: This fault indicates that the inverter has detected that the PV+ or PV- insulation resistance to the ground is too low. According to safety regulations, the inverter must stop working and enter the protection mode to prevent the risk of electric shock.

Why are solar PV inverters so expensive?

Inverters are expensive, but for industrial applications, an even more expensive failure is the cost of downtime. When lightning strikes a solar PV system, it causes an induced transient current and voltage within the solar PV system wire loops.
