Ever tried assembling furniture on a wobbly carpet? Now imagine doing that with solar panels on uneven ground. That's where Antaisolar's CG Alu-Terrain ground mounting system becomes the ultimate "flat-pack hero" for challenging landscapes. As solar farms increasingly conquer mountainous regions and desert terrains, this aluminum alloy solution is rewriting the rules of photovoltaic installation.
Antaisolar's secret sauce lies in its modular friction-lock mechanism – think of it as LEGO for solar engineers. The system's 6005-T5 aluminum alloy components withstand UV radiation better than stainless steel, while maintaining 40% lighter weight. Recent field tests in Chile's Atacama Desert demonstrated 0.03mm corrosion after 18 months, outperforming conventional galvanized steel by 300%.
When a 50MW project faced 25° slopes and 4,800m altitude challenges, the CG system's:
The solar world's buzzing about two game-changers: AI-assisted terrain mapping and dynamic foundation systems. Antaisolar's R&D team recently integrated drone-scanned terrain data with their mounting configurator, cutting site survey costs by 45%. Meanwhile, their new hydraulic foot adaptors automatically compensate for up to 15cm ground settlement – like shock absorbers for your solar array.
Remember the 2023 Arizona dust storm that buried conventional mounts? Alu-Terrain's elevated design (minimum 1.2m ground clearance) kept panels operational while competitors played archaeological dig. The system's 250mm adjustable leg extensions proved crucial when:
While 20% pricier upfront than standard systems, Alu-Terrain's lifecycle economics tell a different story. A 100MW farm in Mongolia saw:
As one site manager quipped: "It's like buying a Swiss Army knife when everyone else uses butter knives – suddenly every terrain challenge has a dedicated tool."
With new IEC standards requiring mounting systems to accommodate bifacial panels and trackers, Alu-Terrain's multi-configuration brackets already support:
. Set multimeter to DC volts for accurate voltage measurement. Connect probes securely for reliable data on panel’s performance. Compare measured voltage output with manufacturer’s values.. Connect multimeter leads as shown below to the solar panel leads (power to power and ground to ground) and record the voltage.. Using a digital multimeter (DMM), technicians should measure voltage from positive to negative, positive to ground, and negative to ground.. To test the current, simply connect the multimeter to the panel’s output. Set it to read DC current. . . Step 1: Measure Open Circuit Voltage (Voc)更多项目 [pdf]
Only use measuring devices with a DC input voltage range of 600 V or higher. In order to check the PV system for ground faults, perform the following actions in the prescribed order. The exact procedure is described in the following sections. Check the PV system for ground faults by measuring the voltage.
If PV module switches are installed that comply with the SunSpec communication signal for Rapid Shutdown systems, the voltage measurement can be taken as described.
This Solis seminar will share with you the causes and troubleshooting methods of PV system ground faults. In a solar photovoltaic system, if a ground fault occurs, the inverter will display a “GROUND-FAULT” alarm when it starts running, and the alarm code is 1033H.
Replace all impacted equipment and conductors. Ground faults can be a persistent issue for any PV system. They take a toll on system health and productivity. A clear, consistent approach to finding and diagnosing such faults can help you repair them reliably and efficiently whenever they occur.
All measured voltages are stable. The sum of the two voltages to ground potential is approximately equal to the voltage between the positive and negative terminals. If a ground fault is present, determine the location of the ground fault via the ratio of the two measured voltages and eliminate the ground fault.
DC ground faults are the most common type of fault in PV systems and half go undetected. A DC ground fault is the undesirable condition of current flowing through the equipment grounding conductor in the circuits carrying DC power (before the inverter).
