Abstract:
The present disclosure provides a system, apparatus and method for providing rapid shutdown for photovoltaic power systems and provides a system, apparatus and method for providing arc sensing for photovoltaic power systems. An AC current can be put on the DC bus to control PV panel shutdown. Local mean decomposition can be used to sense arcing on the DC bus.
