Proper Grounding Of Photovoltaic Panels

Grounding connection method of photovoltaic panels

This process involves two distinct but related concepts: system grounding, which provides a reference to earth for the electrical system (stabilizing voltages and assisting in clearing certain faults), and equipment grounding, which bonds all normally non-current-carrying metallic. [PDF Version]

How to connect the grounding holes of photovoltaic panels

All you have to do is connect the equipment grounding conductor to one rail in each row, allowing all metal parts to bond to the grounding conductor. [PDF Version]

How about jumper grounding of photovoltaic panels

Bonding jumpers—short wires connecting separate sections of racking—are essential to ensure the entire metal structure has a continuous, low-resistance connection to ground. Always use grounding lugs, clips, and other components that are specifically listed and certified for PV. [PDF Version]
