Photovoltaic, wind and hydroelectric
systems usually have long runs of exposed wire
that can pick up surges from lightning, even if
the lightning strike is not nearby. These power
surges can damage sensitive electronic components
in meters, charge controls and inverters. Surges
can also damage telephone, audio and video
equipment connected to the power system. It is a
good idea to install surge protection on all
incoming wires in the system, including incoming
PV, wind or hydroelectric power lines, AC
generator lines, telephone and antenna leads.
Proper grounding is absolutely necessary for
lightning protection to be effective. In the
event of a direct strike, damage may occur, even
with surge protectors installed. |
