6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic power station photovoltaic support grounding]

What is a solar substation grounding guide?

Abstract: This guide is primarily concerned with the grounding system design for photovoltaic solar power plants that are utility owned and/or utility scale (5 MW or greater). The focus of the guide is on differences in practices from substation grounding as provided in IEEE Std 80.

Why is proper grounding of a photovoltaic power system important?

Proper grounding of a photovoltaic (PV) power system is critical to ensuring the safety of the public during the installation’s decades-long life. Although all components of a PV system may not be fully functional for this period of time, the basic PV module can produce potentially dangerous currents and voltages for the life of the system.

What are the challenges of PV grounding design?

One of the challenges in designing the grounding for a Utility Scale Photovoltaic Power Plant is understanding how the system is actually connected, as there are different configurations. In many such systems, the grounding system is common from the DC grounding conductors and the AC grounding conductors.

Why do PV systems need a grounding system?

As installed PV systems age, grounding issues emerge that impact system safety. These issues include deteriorating electrical connections, inadequate grounding device design and installation, and the effects of non-code compliant system installations.

What is the purpose of the grounding system design guide?

Scope: This guide is primarily concerned with the grounding system design for ground-mount photovoltaic (PV) solar power plants (SPPs) that are utility owned and/or utility scale (5 MW or greater). The focus of the guide is on differences in practices from substation grounding as provided in IEEE Std 80.

Does a photovoltaic system have a DC grounding system?

Photovoltaic systems having dc circuits and ac circuits with no direct connection between the dc grounded conductor and ac grounded conductor shall have a dc grounding system. The dc grounding system shall be bonded to the ac grounding system by one of the methods in (1), (2), or (3).
