6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic interoperable system bracket lightning protection]

Do PV panels need a lightning protection system?

Consequently, they are frequently subjected to lightning strikes, which may cause damage to PV arrays, service interruption, and additional cost for PV replacement. Therefore, an adequate lightning protection system (LPS) must be installed to protect the PV panels.

Why is lightning protection important for photovoltaic installations?

The lightning protection of photovoltaic installations is of great importance, in order to warrant the uninterrupted operation of the system and avoid faults and damages of the equipment. Atmospheric discharges influence the proper operation of the photovoltaic generators and their installation, involving also sensitive electronic equipment.

How to protect a PV system from lightning discharges?

In case that a PV installation is protected against lightning discharges by an external LPS, the above distance s between the PV equipment and the parts of the LPS should be respected, in order to avoid sharing of discharge currents through the metallic components of the PV system.

How to protect against lightning overvoltages?

The accurate analysis of lightning transients helps in selecting an effective and economic protection system. Moreover, the metal oxide surge arrester and the static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) were used to mitigate the lightning overvoltages [ 118 ].

How does Lightning affect a PV system?

After studying the influences of lightning strikes on the PV system and modeling methods, it is mandatory to design a protection system for the PV system during lightning. The lightning protection system (LPS) is used to protect the PV system from damage and service interruption.

What are the basic aspects of the lighting protection of PV installations?

The current paper provides an overview of the basic aspects about the lighting protection of PV installations. The initial estimation of the possible dangers due to atmospheric surges and the need for protection against lightning strikes (considering techno-economic criteria) is the first step for the efficient design of LPS.
