SURGE PROTECTORS FOR Photovoltaic systems

EFFICIENT SURGE PROTECTION OF YOUR SOLAR INSTALLATIONS A professional approach to lightning and surge protection will guarantee your photovoltaic systems a long life ROOF TOP INSTALLATIONS For low power PV applications, i.e. residences and small offices, it is necessary to consider surge protecting the AC output of the Inverter that connects directly into the electric power grid as well as the DC input side of the Inverter fed by the PV modules. SPD location The diagram below shows the pertinent locations for surge protectors as described in the CLC/TS61643-12 guide. Additional Surge...

INDUSTRIAL AND PUBLIC BUILDINGS Medium to large power PV systems can be installed on industrial and service facilities. In order to avoid very costly downtime and lost productivity resulting from a direct or indirect lightning strike, it is critical, and in some cases mandatory, to install surge protection at key points within your facility and its vital power and communication networks. Type 2 surge protector If the building is not equipped with a lightning rod system then a Type 2 surge protector is necessary or compulsory on the AC and DC inputs of the inverter. On the PV side, for cable...

PV POWER PLANTS PV power plants present a high risk of direct lightning impact and surges due to the large exposed area and the long lengths of the electric conductors.In order to avoid problems leading to costly damage and downtime, it is compulsory to install surge protectors at key points in the PV system. Type 1 surge protector If the PV field is equipped with lightning rod systems (rods, open air wiring…) Type 1 surge protectors are compulsory at the AC input. On the DC side, Type 1 surge protectors are compulsory at the inverters DC output as defined by CLC/TS 50539-12. Due to the...
