Requirements for special installations or places Solar photovoltaic (PV) power system 712 Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power Supply Unit Note. "PV" is the abbreviation of the English word "Photovoltaic", which means "photovoltaic". In this section, "photovoltaic device" is abbreviated as "PV device". 712.1 Scope This part of GB/T 16895 is applicable to PV system electrical installations that supply power to electrical installations in whole or in part. Like any other equipment, for the equipment in the PV installation, only its choice and application in the installation are involved. The PV installation starts from a single PV module provided by the manufacturer or a group of PV modules connected in series with cables, until the user installation or municipal The part of the power supply point (common connection point). The requirements of this section apply to. ---PV installations not connected to the public power distribution system; ---PV devices connected to the public power distribution system grid-connected; ---PV installation as an alternative to the public power distribution system; --- Appropriate combination of the above. This section does not include specific installation requirements for battery packs or other energy storage equipment. Note 1.Additional requirements for PV devices equipped with battery energy storage on the DC side are under consideration. Note 2.This section includes the protection requirements for PV arrays due to the use of battery packs in PV installations. Additional requirements for the relevant voltage and current ratings, switches and protective appliances applicable to the use of DC-DC converter systems are under consideration. In addition to the hazards caused by traditional AC power devices, DC systems, especially PV arrays, will also bring some hazards. Included in small A situation in which an arc is generated and maintained under normal operating current conditions. The purpose of this part is to solve the design and safety requirements due to the characteristics of PV installations. All requirements. However, the safety requirements for grid-connected PV installations in this part mainly depend on the PV array and comply with IEC 62109-1 and Power Conversion Equipment (PCE) required by IEC 62109-2. 712.2 Normative references The following documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated reference documents, only the dated version applies to this article Pieces. For undated reference documents, the latest version (including all amendments) is applicable to this document.

Each PV section connected to the input circuit (see Figure 712.5) can be treated as a separate PV square array. Should be set in each PV phalanx Isolation switch to provide isolation from PCE. The isolation switch of the PV square array can be integrated into an electrical appliance for normal mechanical operation. 712.31.101.1.3.3 PCE with multiple inputs (each input circuit is connected in parallel inside the PCE) If the input circuit of the PCE is connected in parallel to the common DC bus in the PCE, the PV part connected to each input circuit (see Figure 712.6) is regarded as a sub-square, and all these PV parts belong to a complete PV square. Should be set for each PV sub-array Isolation switch to provide isolation from PCE. This isolation function can also be provided by a shared PV square array isolation switch. 712.31.101.1.3.4 Series and parallel configuration All PV strings connected in parallel in the square array should have the same technical characteristics, and each string should be connected in series with the same number of PV modules (see Figure 712.2~ Figure 712.4), unless these components are individually set for MPPT tracking. In addition, all PV modules connected in parallel in the PV array should have similar Rated electrical performance, including short-circuit current, open circuit voltage, maximum power current, maximum power voltage and rated power (under standard test conditions), Unless these components are individually set up for MPPT tracking. This is a design issue considered by the project implementer, especially when replacing components or retrofitting already built PV installations. 712.31.101.1.3.5 Consideration of the expected failure situation in the PV array The source of the fault current of any device needs to be confirmed. Due to the characteristics of batteries, PV devices containing battery packs may have higher expected fault currents. In a PV installation without a battery pack, the photovoltaic cells (and the PV array formed therefrom) behave like electricity when a low-resistance fault occurs. Stream source. Therefore, even in the case of a short circuit, the fault current cannot be much larger than the normal full load current. The fault current depends on the number of strings, the location of the fault, and the irradiance level. Therefore, it is very important to perform short-circuit current detection in the PV square matrix. difficult. In PV installations, the fault current lower than the operating current of the protective device may still form an arc. 712.31.101.1.3.6 performance issues The performance of the PV array may be affected by many factors, including but not limited to. ---Overall or partial occlusion; ---The temperature rises; ---Cable voltage drop; ---Dust, soil, bird droppings, snow, industrial pollution, etc. cause dirt on the surface of the square array; ---PV module direction; ---PV module attenuation. The location of the PV array should be carefully selected.The shadows formed by nearby trees and buildings may be on the PV side at some time of the day. In battle. It is important to minimize any shadows as much as possible. Keep in mind that even a small shadow on the square will significantly limit its performance. In 712.515.101, the performance degradation due to temperature rise and the need for good ventilation are stated. It should be paid attention to as much as possible. The components remain cool. In the design process, the selection of the cables in the square array and the cables connected from the square array to the application circuit all affect the current carrying conditions of these cables. Voltage drop. This is particularly important in PV installations with low output voltage and high output current. Under the maximum load condition, the most The voltage drop from the remote component to the input terminal of the application circuit should not exceed 3% of the maximum power point voltage of the PV matrix. Dust, soil, bird droppings, snow and other pollution on the surface of PV modules can significantly reduce the output of the square array. Arrangements should be made to Clean these components regularly in case of heavy contamination. 712.4 Safety protection 712.4.101 Overview See Appendix B for the calculation methods of UOCMAX and ISCMAX. 712.4.102 Functional grounding (FE) of the live part on the DC side Due to functional reasons, some PV module technologies need to ground the live parts. If a transformer with electrical isolation between the primary and secondary windings is used to form the most basic simple separation between the AC side and the DC side, it is allowed Allow the functional grounding of the live part of the DC side of the PCE. The transformer can be located inside or outside the PCE. But should not connect the PCE The transformer winding is grounded, and the PCE should meet this requirement. The functional grounding of the live part should be implemented at a single point on the DC side, near the DC input end of the PCE or at the PCE itself. The ground is preferably located between the disconnecting device and the DC terminal of the photovoltaic PCE. At the same time, it should meet the requirements of 712.421.101.2.3.
