摘要: The photovoltaic system includes a first inverter circuit, a second inverter circuit, and a switch circuit. When the switch circuit is in the first state, a first photovoltaic array is connected to the direct current positive bus and the neutral bus through the switch circuit, and a second photovoltaic array is connected to the neutral bus and the direct current negative bus through the switch circuit. When the switch circuit is in the second state, the first photovoltaic array is connected to the neutral bus and the direct current negative bus through the switch circuit, and the second photovoltaic array is connected to the direct current positive bus and the neutral bus through the switch circuit. A potential of the photovoltaic array is changed to prevent a PID effect from occurring when the photovoltaic array is at a negative potential for a long time.

摘要: An inverter in a power generation system converts a direct current that is input from a direct-current-side device into an alternating current for power supply. The inverter includes a control apparatus and a communications apparatus. The control apparatus controls the inverter to convert the direct current that is input from the direct-current-side device into an alternating current for power supply. The communications apparatus is coupled to the control apparatus, and sends a networking information request signal used to request networking information to the direct-current-side device in the power generation system through a direct-current power line, where a frequency of the networking information request signal is within a first frequency band. The communications apparatus also receives the networking information from the direct-current-side device; and sends a control signal to the direct-current-side device, where a frequency of the control signal is within a second frequency band.

摘要: A fault isolation apparatus includes a controller and a circuit breaker. When the circuit breaker is located on a bus connected to a DC/DC conversion unit, if a voltage collected by a first voltage collection terminal is a negative value, it indicates that input or output of the DC/DC conversion unit is reversely connected. In this case, if the circuit breaker is controlled to be opened, the DC/DC conversion unit can be prevented from being connected in series to other parallel DC/DC conversion units. If a voltage collected by a first voltage collection terminal is low and a current collected by a current collection terminal is large, it indicates that the DC/DC conversion unit is short-circuited. In this case, if the circuit breaker is controlled to be opened, another component connected in series to the DC/DC conversion unit can also be prevented from backfeeding energy to the DC/DC conversion unit.

摘要: Embodiments of this application disclose a design of an inverter and a design of a combiner box, to reduce maintenance costs of a photovoltaic device. According to the inverter or the combiner box provided in the embodiments of this application, when electroluminescence (EL) defect detection is performed on the photovoltaic device, a reverse charging circuit integrated into the inverter or integrated into the combiner box is used to output a direct current to a to-be-tested photovoltaic string of the photovoltaic device. Whether the to-be-tested photovoltaic string has defects is determined based on a light emission status of the to-be-tested photovoltaic string. By using the foregoing designs, maintenance engineers do not need to modify wiring terminals of the photovoltaic device when performing EL defect tests on the photovoltaic device. This helps reduce maintenance costs of the photovoltaic device.
