We anayze the quality of your photovoltaic power plant, independent of its size.
A solar power plant can be measured with a I-V-curve analyzer
With the characteristic U-I measurement, the electrical characteristics of individual modules or entire strings in relation to irradiation and module temperature are determined and used to calculate the power of the module / string under standard conditions (STC). Especially the characteristic measurement is suitable for the detection of defective modules or increased contact resistance, but also of pollution or diffuse shadowing. A comparison with the manufacturer’s ratings is possible and you can make clear statements about the efficiency of the PV generator and highlight errors on the module / string.
A very strong instrument for failure detection: thermal imaging
Thermal Imaging is a method that makes infrared radiation (heat radiation) visible. This allows to identify thermal anomalies in any photovoltaic system in operation. This allows fast detection and documentation of thermal anomalies without switching off the system or remove any modules.
With a high-resolution infrared camera we detect temperature differences of less than 0.1 K and thus we can draw conclusions about possible defects. For reliable fault detection a solid expertise in the evaluation of the photographic material is required.
Thermography can detect the following defects:
Module failure (also partial failures), defective wiring, moisture, delaminations, cracks in the module, defective bypass diodes and many others.
Jendra Power has a broad range of mesurement equipment to be used in solar power plant audit.
