Abstract

See full text

A safety shut-down system for a solar energy installation includes a DC to AC inverter converting DC power from a photovoltaic solar array to AC power and generating remote control signals to enable or disable the flow of DC power from each individual photovoltaic panel or string of panels to a photovoltaic output circuit. One or more manual switches, one of which may be at a service entrance for electrical power to the installation, are operative to cause the DC to AC inverter to disable all DC power from the photovoltaic solar array; this also occurs when the DC to AC inverter is shut off. A storage battery may selectively receive DC power from one or more photovoltaic panels or strings of panels for charging. The DC to AC inverter may generate AC power from the battery when the photovoltaic solar array is disabled.
