Energy management specialist, Carlo Gavazzi has launched the CPA Series of power analsyers for AC single phase and DC monitoring. A contactless hall effect sensor allows current measurement AC 50-300A and DC 50-400A.
A brand new concept in solar PV test instrumentation combines accurate I-V curve analysis with essential electrical testing for the fast and effective commissioning, O&M and diagnostic testing of all types of solar PV installations.
Jim Wallace of Seaward Solar looks at the reasons why electrical testing and inspection of solar PV installations is a fundamental requirement for system safety and performance.
Advanced test instrumentation is helping the UK’s leading developer and operator of commercial solar photovoltaic (PV) plants ensure that its solar farms continue to operate at maximum performance levels.
FLIR thermal imaging is increasingly playing an important part in ensuring maximum energy yield from solar panels. It is involved throughout the life cycle of the product from its design, manufacture and quality assurance procedures through to installation and ongoing maintenance. No other technology has its scope of application.
With the UK’s commitment to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050, it stands to reason that renewable energy systems will increasingly feature in our built environment.
The Government estimates that by 2020 around 4 million homes in the UK will be solar powered, representing an installed solar power capacity of 22,000 MW.
Advanced test instrumentation has helped a UK-based solar PV specialist to significantly improve the electricity supply on two off-grid Hebridean Islands.
