DC - distribution and protection components
Introduction
Photovoltaic systems are composed by photovoltaic panels, cables, fuses, switches, overvolt-
age arresters and power inverter. Photovoltaic panels utilise the power of sun light to con-
verters photons to DC current.
Electricity generated by solar panels is then fed into a power inverter that converts DC current
to AC current. gPV fuse has been developed to protect cable and panel against "reverse"
overcurrent.
ETITEC B, C-PV series of over voltage surge protective devices has been developed to protect 2011/65/EU
against direct and indirect lightning discharges and is intended to protect photovoltaic sys-
tems.
The circuit topology consists of two varistors stages each protected by a thermal disconnec-
tion device.
Overcurrent protection
PV module protection from »DC REVERSE« current on DC side
Array with three or more strings of panels:
PV systems that have three or more strings connected in parallel need to have each string
protected by fuses.
Systems that have less than three strings will not generate enought fault current to damage
the conductors/solar panels.
Normaly there are two gPV fuses connected on each string (+ and - pole), that protect con-
ductors/solar panels from damage and eliminate any safety hazards.
Fuses isolate the faulted string. The rest of PV system can continue to generate electricity.
PV module protection from »AC REVERSE« current caused by defective inverter
If an inverter becomes defective (transformerless…), AC reverse current can feed into DC
strings and destroy PV modules.

ETI as one of the most important European producer of overcurrent protection equipment and
devices participating in many working groups for standards developement at International Elec-
trotechnical Commission (IEC). ETI is member of maintenance team MT9 belonging to the 32B
group, working on the part 6 of the IEC 60269 dealing with supplementary requirements for
fuse-links for the overcurrent protection of solar photovoltaic energy systems.

ETI developed a new generation of PV cylindrical fuse-links with nominal currents
up to 63A and rated voltage up to 1500V, with gPV characteristic for protecting solar
ks
panels against the reverse current. New fuse-links have a lower power dissipation
and higher breaking capacity up to 50 kA. Size 10/14x85 has a patented design for
interrupting in case of short circuit conditions. All current range of fuse-links can be
mounted in EFH 10/14x85 fuse-holder.

New directions in PV inverters
development
New directions in PV inverters development...
PV inverters are getting larger and smarter, their characteristics better and better,
they have become smart, safe, reliable and efficient.
Higher yields are reached by utilizing dynamic system efficiency optimization with
intelligent technology. Achieved efficiency currently ranges above 98,5%. One of
most important technical features of the new generation of PV inverters is 800V a.c.
output voltage instead of 400V a.c. With this output voltage increase, we achieve a
75% decrease in a.c. connection wires losses. Yet, because of the increased output
voltage modern PV central inverters demand a specially designed fuse-link for reliable
short-circuit and over-current protection.
As one of the first among the producers of NH fuse-links, ETI has developed a new
generation of NH gG fuse-links, specially designed for cable protection on 800V a.c.
system voltage. With an innovative design of melting elements, adoption of high
temperature and internal pressure resistant ceramic material, the final NH fuse-link
construction can now be incorporated in a standard NH size dimensions.
At the moment ETI is offering sizes NH00, NH1 and NH3 gG fuse-links, from rated
current 6A up to 315A, designed and tested on 800V a.c. with very low power
dissipation and high breaking capacity. On a customer request, we are also ready to
develop even higher rated currents.

LBS DC are manually operated multipolar load break switches.
Making and breaking capacity under load conditions up to 1500 VDC.
These extremely durable switches have been tested and approved for use in the most
demanding applications. They have been designed and tested for all types of applications: earthing, floating or bipolar.
- Thanks to a reduced number of bridging bars, you can limit your costs and save mounting time
- A 2 pole switch has reduced warming and can be placed in a smaller enclosure
- can be directly connected to up to four independent PV panel strings (4 pole switch)
- tested to critical currents and at 10kA short circuit during 50 ms without specific protection
High quality materials glass fibre reinforced polyester frame provide:
- high mechanical strength,
- stability to temperature variations (RTI of 130°C)
- high dielectric strength (high CTI / tested as per standard ASTM D 2303)

Design recommendations
Central inverter - PV system
Photovoltaic modules are protected against reverse currents with cylindrical gPV fuse-links inserted in
cylindrical fuse holders. Photovoltaic arrays are then connected to the central inverters protected with
NH gPV fuse-links inserted in NH fuse bases or direct mounted on the busbar system. On the combiner and
the inverter level, SPDs and switch disconnectors are used.

For battery banks with parallel strings, a good practice is to include overcurrent protection for each battery string. This minimizes the potential of the
bank backfeeding a single shorted battery, which can lead to fires and property damage.
Battery-string fusing is best accomplished with appropriately sized dc-rated fuses secured in bolt-in fuse holders that are housed in a single enclosure.
This arrangement makes it easy to isolate one battery string for testing or maintenance while allowing the system to continue operation. Individual
battery-string fuses can provide protection against catastrophic failure in the event of major fault in the main disconnect breaker panel or elsewhere in
the battery bank. Series fuses on each battery string also reduce the available shortcircuit current levels, allowing for the use of lower ampere interrupting
current rated circuit breakers for the inverter/ charger disconnects. Without the fuses, the amount of current that the circuit breaker has to interrupt
during a fault could potentially exceed it's rating.

Ratings for Li-ion batteries
The first set of C ratings on a Li-ion tells us how fast the battery can be discharged.
30C/60C
translates to
Burst can last for <5 seconds. To figure out how many amps this rate is, you need to know the capacity of
the battery pack. If the pack says that it has 2,3Ah, take that number before the Ah and multiply with 30 to
get the number of amps. In this case, it would be 69A. That is rating of 30C for that pack.
The burst rate would then be 2,3 x 60=138A amps for less than 5 seconds.
