6 FAQs about [Solar Street Lightning Protection Grounding Design]

How a lightning protection system is installed on a solar PV farm?

Lightning protection systems which are installed on a solar PV farm are mostly based on a Franklin rod (connected to a down-conductor) as the preferred point of attachment. Consequently, it utilises the concept of protective angle or rolling sphere method to determine the protective zone to the solar panel assemblies –.

What is solar lightning protection?

Grounding is a technique to connect a part of the system electrically to the earth by means of a conductive material and is the key technique in Solar Lightning Protection. Earth could be considered as a sea of infinite electricity. Any charge/current that is transmitted to the earth is safely absorbed by it.

Is lightning protection necessary for PV systems?

Consequently, effective lightning protection is indispensable for PV systems. Lightning transient evaluation of a PV system has been a necessary task in designing effective LPS. Such evaluation has been addressed experimentally and numerically. Stern and Karner investigated the induced voltages of a single panel in the laboratory.

Can lightning strike a solar PV panel?

This paper considers the possibility that, despite the installation of the lightning protection system (LPS), direct lightning strikes to the solar PV panel frame/structure might still happen , . Hence, lightning current will flow through the PV frame/structure to the ground.

Are PV systems vulnerable to lightning?

Similar to other power systems [, , , , ], PV systems are vulnerable to lightning because they are always installed in unsheltered open areas. Recent studies on lightning protection of PV systems have drawn much attentions .

What is a non-linear surge protective device (SPD)?

The non-linear surge protective device (SPD) is also considered in the modelling. An experiment on a PV panel is presented for the validation of the proposed method. The proposed procedure is finally applied to investigate lightning transients in a practical PV system. The lightning failure mode of bypass diodes is identified for the first time.
