Solar DCDB single phase
A solar DCDB, or Direct Current Distribution Box, is a device that manages the flow of electricity from solar panels to an inverter. It's a vital part of a solar power system, ensuring the system's safety and efficiency.
How it works
- The DCDB receives direct current (DC) power from the solar panels.
- The DCDB combines the DC power from multiple solar panels into one array.
- The DCDB directs the power to the inverter, which converts it to alternating current (AC).
What it protects
- The DCDB protects the solar panels, inverter, and other equipment from damage caused by surges, overvoltage, and short circuits.
What it includes
Protective devices: Fuses, circuit breakers, surge protection devices (SPDs), and isolators
Monitoring devices: String-level monitoring systems to detect issues with individual panels
Why it's important?
The DCDB is a vital component in ensuring the safe and efficient operation of a solar power plant.
