In addition to high eficiency, the suppression of com-mon-mode (CM) ground leakage currents is another criti-cal requirement for PV inverters. Ground leakage currents can flow in transformerless inverter systems because of the existence of parasitic capacitances between the solar cells of the PV array and the ground.
An essential requirement for transformerless photovoltaic (PV) inverters is the suppression of common-mode (CM) ground leakage currents. Transformerless PV inverters normally provide a voltage step-up capability to extend energy harvesting from PV arrays.
If left undetected, ground faults can lead to inverter shutdowns, loss of system yield, or even fire. In this article, we’ll show you how to locate a ground fault in a solar PV string using only a multimixer, a basic understanding of voltage behaviour, and a method proven in real-world installations.
Even with the inverter off, PV modules remain live when exposed to light. Ground faults can make the array or structure live, creating an unseen yet deadly risk. Only handle cables by their insulation, never touch frames, module backsheets, mounting hardware, or metal structures. 2. Prevent Damage to Measuring Equipment
