Do solar panels need lightning protection? The short answer is: it depends on your location, system size, and local lightning activity-but most systems benefit from some level of protection.
The recommended approach is to use a separate DC grounding electrode for PV arrays and frames, as this enhances protection against lightning and transient voltage.
A complete lightning current is discharged through the following paths: The magnitude of the lightning current GB50057-94 (2000 Edition) YD/T 5098-2001 Suggestion: Enter the building/station power supply B level. The protection should use 10/350µs waveform surge.
"Lightning rods" are static discharge devices that are placed above buildings and solar-electric arrays, and connected to ground. They are meant to prevent static charge buildup and the surrounding atmosphere'.
