Technical FAQs 4

Are DC faults causing inverter failures?

According to statistics, 74% of inverter failures are caused by DC faults (based on Huawei 175 GW run-ning statistics). For a grounded PV system, DC faults can be classified into line-to-line faults and grounding faults.

What causes coupling in DC side of photovoltaic inverter?

There are multiple fault causes coupling in DC side of photovoltaic inverter. The changes of voltage, current and power are derived by fault mechanism analysis. The differences of failure feature are used to locate the fault cause.

How do DC faults differ from grid-connected inverters?

Due to the different mechanisms of DC faults caused by different causes, there are obvious differences in characteristic such as voltage and current. Using the fault features of grid-connected inverters, a fault diagnosis process combining multiple technical means is proposed.

What happens if an inverter is connected in reverse?

If the components are connected in reverse, the consequences are relatively serious. At best, the inverter will explode, and at worst, the components will catch fire. So special attention should be paid. If novices are not very proficient, they can first measure the voltage with a multimeter.
