Find the blind spots in PV systems. Solar ground fault troubleshooting. Why DC ground faults in PV systems are hidden hazards you need to detect before it’s too late.
The photovoltaic standard stipulates that for the detection of photovoltaic leakage current, Type B, that is, a current sensor capable of measuring both AC and DC leakage currents, must be used. The current sensor is installed on the external line output interface of the inverter, so as to detect the current of the solar inverter output ground .
Check the PV system for ground faults by measuring the voltage. If the voltage measurement was not successful, check the PV system via insulation resistance measurement for ground faults.
The leakage current in a PV system is represented by the insulation resistance of the PV string. The decline in the fill factor eventually decreases the insulation resistance and hence results in a failed model.
