Why we Should Design Solar PV Systems for Both Maintenance and Safety

Why we Should Design Solar PV Systems for Both Maintenance and Safety

First and Foremost: Safety Should be Obligatory

Key Safety Design Elements

Solar PV system with maintenance and safety challenges due to obstructed access
Modules against fiberglass obstruct maintenance
Well-spaced solar PV panels installed on a metal rooftop, ensuring safe access for maintenance, improved airflow, and better system efficiency
Well-spaced panels ensure safe access, easy maintenance, and better airflow

Electrical Design Considerations for Longevity and Efficiency

Critical Considerations in Electrical Design Include

Solar inverters mounted on a rooftop wall, making replacement and maintenance more challenging due to elevated positioning.
Inverters on roof making it harder to replace
Solar inverters installed at ground level indoors, ensuring easy access for maintenance and replacement, improving safety and efficiency
Ground-level inverters for easy maintenance and replacement.
