System Components
Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Module
- A PV module has solar cells that convert sunlight directly into DC electricity The PV module is the heart of the solar technology
- Technology: mono/Multi (Poly) - crystalline silicon
- Certification/ Standard:
- Design: IEC 61215 Ed. 2.0
- Safety: IEC 61730 Ed. 1.2
- Performance Warranty: 25 years, 90% during first 10 years, 80% during next 15 years
- Replacement Warranty: 10 years
Grid-tied PV Inverter
- A grid-tied PV inverter is the brain of the PV system which
- Extracts the maximum DC power from the PV modules using a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) mechanism;
- Converts the DC power into AC power;
- Synchronizes the output AC power with the phase and voltage levels of the grid in order to push power back into the grid;
- Offers the necessary safety features on both PV system(DC) and grid (AC) - side.
- Maximum Efficiency: 97.7%
- Certification/ Standard:
- Protection: IEC 62109 Ed. 1.0
- EMC: EN 61000-6-1/2/3/4, EN 61000-3-2/3/11/12
- IP65 for both outdoor and indoor applications
- Warranty: 5 year
Junction Box
- DC and AC-side junction boxes are used to connect equipment such as strings of PV modules in parallel or inverters in parallel, if needed.
- They also house the necessary protection equipment, if not already present in inverters, such as:
- (+)ve and (-)ve DC terminal fuses from PV modules
- Surge protection devices (SPD)
- DC disconnection switch
- Our junction boxes are made of polycarbonate, which are rated IP65 for outdoor and indoor use.
Module Mounting Structure
- Module mounting structures are used to mount PV modules in place.
- Our mounting structures are made of hot-dip galvanized mild-steel, designed to last through the life of the PV system.
- All fasteners are made of stainless steel in order to avoid any corrosion issues.
- There is no drilling or penetration on the RCC roof, so the water-proofing of the roof remains intact.
- Certification/ Standard:
- Mounting structure steel: IS 2062: 1992
- Mounting structure galvanization: IS 4759
- Mounting structure is designed to withstand a wind speed of 150 km/hr.
