Figure 6-13: Technicians should measure electrical continuity throughout a system''s lifetime—from commissioning to routine O&M—to ensure proper installation and verify a complete and safe path for
A closer look at PV ground-fault testing tools
Our latest post explained how a small selection of robust test tools can deliver better results for photovoltaic (PV) technicians working across a range of O&M activities.
Grounding
The purpose of this presentation is to outline a methodology for grounding system analysis of large utility scale photovoltaics, with regards to IEEE Std 80. At the end of this presentation you will be able to:
How to perform a continuity test on the grounding of a PV module
Place one probe on the frame of the module farthest from the ground rod and the other probe directly on the main grounding electrode. This is your most important measurement.
