Cooper Bussmann has worked closely with solar systems manufacturers and through coordinated research and development, has produced revolutionary new fuse links which, combined with its range of Surge Protection Devices, offer complete protection for PV systems.
Developed specifically to provide installers with a cost-effective and easy-to-use solution for connecting medium power solar PV installations to the grid, the new PV-DB distribution and protection board from Eaton’s Electrical Sector eliminates the need for cumbersome, costly and inconvenient ad-hoc arrangements and also ensures that the requirements of G59/2 are fully satisfied.
The new PV sets from Phoenix Contact for multi-string inverters reliably protect photovoltaic systems with two or three independent strings against surge voltages up to 1000 V DC.
The VAL-MS 1000DC/2+F... surge arresters protect photovoltaic systems up to 1000 V. They are particularly suitable for use in large systems. The arresters can be used in both isolated and midpoint grounded systems thanks to their low protection level.
Cooper Bussmann PV Fuses are a range of fuse links in a 10x38mm package designed specifically for the protection and isolation of photovoltaic strings in solar panel applications.
Installation of PV arrays at roof level, and the siting of solar parks in open, exposed locations, makes PV systems susceptible to damage from partial lightning currents.
Carlo Gavazzi is showcasing its EOS-Array solution for control, protection and monitoring of grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) plants, on Stand M3 at the Solar Power UK event.
For the photovoltaic market, ABB supplies a comprehensive range of high technology products for virtually every residential, commercial and power plant application to grant its customers access to renewable sources of energy.
The existing Regulations and guidance for small PV installations have been in place for several years, however there still appears to be a lot of confusion and miss information circulating within the Industry, relating to the use of Type “A” and Type “B” RCCBs in PV installations.
Eaton’s new integrated PV Switch & Surge Unit has been designed to make the installation of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems faster and easier and more cost effective.
