    Extreme exposure of heat, direct sunlight and wrong installations can pose threat to the solar inverters. So it is often advised to install solar inverters in shade and with adequate space from other nearby obstructions.

  2. Asked: October 29, 2024In: Solar Inverter

    Which fault is common in an inverter?

    Solar Faqs Team
    Solar Faqs Team
    Team of Solar Faqs | Answer on October 29, 2024 at 5:39 pm

    Some of the common faults include excess grid voltage which disrupts the normal functioning of the inverters. This needs some changes in the settings of the inverters. Some other issues also include problems in the display of the inverters.

    No solar inverters cannot run for 24 hours as they work mainly when there is sunlight is available the solar system is generating power.

  5. Asked: October 16, 2024In: Solar Module

    Are solar panels safe for your health?

    Solar Faqs Team
    Solar Faqs Team
    Team of Solar Faqs | Answer on October 16, 2024 at 12:24 pm

    One of the benefits of using solar panels for power generation is that unlike thermal energy, it does not emit green house gases during electricity generation. However, a latest study hinted a minor rise in local temperatures due to the use of inefficient solar panels.

  6. Asked: October 16, 2024In: Solar Plant

    What happens after 20 years of solar panels?

    Solar Faqs Team
    Solar Faqs Team
    Team of Solar Faqs | Answer on October 16, 2024 at 12:24 pm

    Usually solar panels degrade at the rate of 0.5% to 0.8% oer year based on the technology used and the degradation rate. So after 20 years, if the degradation rate is 0.5%, the total effiiency of the solar panel will remain 90% instead of 100%.

    If you want to undertake rooftop solar business, you need to register with the discom (electricity distribution company) where you want to operate. As per the PM Surya Ghar scheme norms, only the registered solar vendors can undertake residential rooftop solar installations. The consumers can get subsidies for rooftop solar projects under the PM Surya Ghar scheme only if they get their installations done by registered vendors only. The National Rooftop Portal maintains a list of all the registered solar vendors who are undertaking these installations. For getting registered with the local discom, these companies also need to pay annual fees to them to get their registrations done.

    On an average it takes one to two months to complete the whole process from your application to the commissioning of the rooftop solar system. However, the real time depends on the state where you live, the proactiveness of the electricity company (discoms) in the region in granting required permissions and the service quality of your solar vendor. In some states like Gujarat, where the whole system is faster, the connections are done within 20 days to one month. We need to keep in mind that in rooftop solar connections, while the solar installation will be done by the vendor, electricity companies handle the issue of installation of net-meters, its testing and final commissioning.

    The role of a solar inverter is to convert the solar power (generated in DC) to AC. In households, the electrical appliances use AC power. So the generating item in a solar system is not inverter but the solar modules. However, the proper running of inverters is also important. There are many errors like lack of grid power, excess grid voltage and others which can halt its operations. In most inverters, these errors are shown with a code which depict the particular problems with the inverter. Contact your solar project vendor or inverter firm for any clarification or repair if needed.
