Technical FAQs 4
How do you know if an inverter has a ground fault?
Measure the remaining strings in the same manner. If the insulation resistance of a string deviates considerably from the theoretically calculated value, there is a ground fault present in that string. Reconnect to the inverter only those strings from which the ground fault has been eliminated. Reconnect all other strings to the inverter.
How do you test an inverter?
Calculate the expected insulation resistance per string. Disconnect the inverter from any voltage sources (see the inverter installation manual). Install the short circuit device. Connect the measuring device for insulation resistance. Short-circuit the first string. Set the test voltage.
Can a PV inverter be touched?
Touch the cables of the PV array on the insulation only. Do not touch any parts of the substructure or frame of the PV array. Do not connect PV strings with ground faults to the inverter. Ensure that no voltage is present and wait five minutes before touching any parts of the PV system or the product.
How to check a PV system for ground faults?
The exact procedure is described in the following sections. Check the PV system for ground faults by measuring the voltage. If the voltage measurement was not successful, check the PV system via insulation resistance measurement for ground faults. Proceed as follows to check each string in the PV system for ground faults.
