PV voltage is too high: The PV voltage refers to the open-circuit voltage of the solar panel string. Different inverters have varying DC voltage input ranges, so the configuration of the number of solar panels in the string needs to be adjusted. based on the inverter's DC voltage input range. If the "PV voltage is too high" alarm occurs, it is likely because the number of solar panels in the string exceeds the inverter's DC voltage range.
Solution:
Check the inverter's parameters, particularly the input voltage range. Use a multimeter set to the DC voltage mode to measure the PV voltage of the string. Connect the red probe to the positive terminal and the black probe to the negative terminal of the string. Ensure that the multimeter reading falls within the inverter's rated input range. Verify the actual number of solar panels connected to the string.
PV voltage is too low: The reasons for low PV voltage may include having too few solar panels in the series, reversed positive and negative connections in some strings, loose terminals, poor contact, or broken strings.
Solution:
Use a multimeter set to the DC voltage mode to measure the PV voltage of the string. Connect the red probe to the positive terminal and the black probe to the negative terminal of the solar string. Ensure that the multimeter reading falls within the inverter's rated input range. Verify the actual number of solar panels connected to the solar string.
By following these steps, you can effectively address PV voltage issues and ensure the proper functioning of the solar power system.
