Abstract: The technology relates to a solar array kit useful in forming a solar array system, including a continuity signal generator and a detection circuit. The continuity signal generator has connectors for connecting to a solar array circuit and delivers a continuity signal to the solar array circuit. The detection circuit has connectors for connecting to the solar array circuit, a continuity signal sensor, at least one switch for selectively opening and closing the solar array circuit, and a switch controller. The switch controller has connectors for connecting to a power source and is adapted to actuate the switch upon receipt of a control signal from the detection circuit.

Abstract: Photovoltaic shade impact prediction processes include obtaining a three-dimensional model of a subject, associating an identifier of a camera image with a location of the camera disposed on the subject. The processes also include receiving an image of the sky captured by the camera, and the identifier, measuring pixel brightness of the image, estimating shade object perimeters in spherical coordinates based on the pixel brightness, and displaying a representation of the shade object perimeters in the model at the location of the camera based on the camera image identifier. The representation of the shade object perimeters is oriented based on a tilt angle and azimuth angle of the subject surface. The processes further include estimating a size and position of shade objects in real world three-dimensional space based on the spherical coordinates of the shade object perimeters, and creating an irradiance map for the subject surface.
