6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic panel anti-leakage performance]

How to eliminate leakage current in solar PV array system?

There are two distinct methods to eliminate the leakage current in the solar PV array system: (i) obstruct the leakage current, (ii) reduce the variation/constant common-mode voltage. The additional diodes/switches are incorporated in the system to obstruct the leakage current by disconnecting the PV array from the grid side network.

How do leakage currents affect PV module efficiency?

This will induce leakage currents flowing through the module package potentially leading to significant PV module efficiency loss. In standard p-type c-Si PV modules, leakage currents can flow from the module frame to the solar cells along several different pathways (Fig. 2), which are depicted as follows:12,13,44,48–50

How does dust affect the leakage current of a PV module?

A slight amount of dust (2 g/m2) on the module surface was found to trigger the wet leakage current to a considerable limit. Tiny dust particles have a capability to attach with some ionic compounds, where Na ions are dominant from the coastal area that prompts the leakage current of the PV module.
