STRING SUPERVISOR DESCRIPTION

 

The DC current generated by the panels, is transformed into AC current and synchronized in voltage and 
phase by the solar inverter, and injected into the electric distribution grid, getting by this economical profit 
selling the energy to the Company.

The state of the installation is crucial for its optimization. If a solar panel is damaged, dirty or disconnected, 
it will affect to all the string (they are connected in series), significantly decreasing the energy generated.  
 
Each  String  Supervisor  has  a  protection  that  prevents  the  installation  from  overvoltages.  The  String 
Supervisor detects the state of the overvoltage protection. Like this, if the protection becomes out of order 
due  to  a  limitation  provoked  by  a  very  high  overvoltage,  it  will  inform  the  inverter  of  the  situation  so  that 
maintenance personnel can proceed to its replacement. 
 
The String Supervisor has a fuse in each of the panel strings that disconnects the corresponding panel in 
case of an overload. If the fuse melts down, it would be detected by the string supervisor, as the current of 
the string would be zero. 
 
The String Supervisor has an unload switch, that allows the total insulation of the positive and negative 
string, in order to enable maintenance without stopping the energy production.  
 
The following diagram shows the main components of the String Supervisor:
