Lightning and Surge Protection for PV and Building Infrastructure
Lightning strikes cause surges which propagate inside a PV power plant’s wiring structure, sending powerful impulses throughout the electrical system and severely damaging sensitive electronic equipment such as inverters, PV modules, control circuits and communication systems. While damage resulting from a direct lightning strike may be immediate, delayed equipment failures can also occur at any time due to the cumulative effect of repetitive exposure to surge anomalies.
This is why Raycap has developed the most robust and reliable surge protective technology available for solar equipment manufacturers. Many inverter OEMs already integrate Raycap’s lightning and surge protection modules into their inverter equipment to provide optimum levels of surge protection for PV systems. Installing surge protection from Raycap prevents extended downtimes and the loss of revenues during such downtimes, as well as decreases maintenance costs over time.
