Researchers from China's Tianjin University and inverter manufacturer Ginlong Solis have developed a novel AI-based method for DC arc detection in PV systems. A DC arc occurs in PV arrays when there ...

Texas Instruments Incorporated (TI) (NASDAQ: TXN) introduced the industry's first fully programmable DC arc detect reference solution. The RD-195 makes it faster and easier for designers to address a ...

The formation of arcs in high-power systems can be extremely dangerous and lead to severe damage, if not controlled. Sensing when an arc is forming in a timely manner is paramount to interrupting the ...

In recent years, PV power station fire accidents have occurred frequently, which not only lose the power station property and power generation income, but also cause building damage and personal ...

With increasing interest and demand for renewable energy sources, the market has seen a surge in the deployment of solar photovoltaic systems that convert sunlight to electricity. While new ...

Next to the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70E, “Standard for Electrical Safety in the Workplace,” is the largest selling document among more than 300 NFPA codes and standards. Although not a code ...

Global solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity surpassed 2.2 TWp in 2024. That’s over 2.2 trillion watts of generation capacity, equivalent to roughly $2 trillion in installed value. By comparison, this ...

One characteristic of adding PV solar to homes is a massive increase in high-voltage and high-current DC installations. With this comes a need for suitable breakers, but without the requisite ...

A new method allows welders with little background in magnetism to reduce arc blow during DC welding of pipelines. Arc blow most commonly occurs after an in-line magnetic-flux-leakage inspection tool ...
