CITEL offers a complete range of surge protection adapted to various networks including Low Voltage, Telecom, Data, Radiocom. Since 2005, CITEL has developed a range of surge protection and integrated enclosure solutions specifically for the photovoltaic market. CITEL's mission is to bring high-performance solutions compliant with the worlds leading standards in order to insure the best efficiency and reliability of your photovoltaic system. 4 Protection of PV devices against transient overvoltages Most of the solar module manufacturers offer a warranty of 20 years or more on their products. The cost of such devices is then calculated on this very long period. However those installations are very regularly exposed to lightnings and overvoltages, which can considerably reduce the desired life expectancy. The use of adapted surge protections is then highly recommended. Surge Protectors for PV devices Several aspects have to be considered to evaluate the risk The photovoltaic installation can be exposed to "Lightning and Overvoltages" : overvoltages on different networks : The more the solar panel field is expanded, the more the risk of "lightning" issue is important. - AC network : surge protectors are necessary, The risk is multiple : direct effect (lightning impact sometimes mandatory, for the 230V monophase directly on the modules) and indirect effect (overvoltages network (or 3-phases 230/400V) on which the PV on modules, on the converter/inverter and other inverter is connected. connecions). When the Photovoltaic devices are located on industrial - DC network : surge protectors are necessary, sites, the risk of operation overvoltages should be taken in sometimes mandatory, on the continuous network account as well. in between the modules and the PV inverter. The risks level is directly linked to the density of local lightning and the exposure of the lines. - Data Network : if the PV inverter is linked to data lines (transducers, sensors, supervision) surge protectors are sometimes required. Surge Protection for PV 5 photovoltaic generator disconnection boxes Surge Protectors for PV installations - AC side The connection of the PV to low voltages should be protected according to the Guide UTE C15-712 recommandation. Depending on the kind of network, the presence of lightning rod or on primary existing surge protectors, CITEL proposes several solutions.

Citel has developped a whole range of products devoted to this application : DS50PV. This one proposes several solutions : DS50PV : standard solution using specific varistors, available in common or differential mode.
