Prioritize adhering to industry standards and utilizing approved hardware for connections to maximize the lifespan of your inverter surge protection system. Surge protective devices (SPDs) have been becoming the most accepted and most effective electric device in protecting surge events in industrial use.
Improper surge protection could lead to inverter malfunctions, system downtime, and even safety hazards. Before we hop into surge protection measures section for inverters, it is worth introducing some of the most common surge sources associated with inverter systems.
Protection against these involves the use of circuit breakers and fuses that automatically disconnect the circuit when excessive current is detected. These protective devices must be installed on both the AC and DC sides of the inverter. They operate by breaking the circuit, thus stopping the flow of electricity and preventing damage.
Ensuring their protection against electrical and environmental factors is essential for optimal performance and longevity. This article outlines the key protections needed to safeguard inverters from common risks such as surges, overcurrent, and temperature extremes.
An inverter, or DC inverter, or solar inverter, is an electronic device that converts direct power to alternating power, which then can be supplied to multiple end uses. The utilization of inverters contributes to promoting the sustainability of green power and alleviating the pressure of power supply.
Both scenarios can be dangerous and cause significant damage to inverters. Protection against these involves the use of circuit breakers and fuses that automatically disconnect the circuit when excessive current is detected. These protective devices must be installed on both the AC and DC sides of the inverter.
