Maximum discharge current Imax
The maximum discharge current Imax is defined according to the estimated exposure level relative to the building’s location.
The value of the maximum discharge current (Imax) is determined by a risk analysis (see table in Figure 1).
Fig. 1 – Recommended maximum discharge current Imax according to the exposure level
| Exposure level | |||
| Low | Medium | High | |
| Building environment | Building located in an urban or suburban area of grouped housing | Building located in a plain | Building where there is a specific risk: pylon, tree, mountainous region, wet area or pond, etc. |
| Recommended Imax value (kÂ) | 20 | 40 | 65 |
DC Surge protective device,protect against lightning surge voltages in solar system (photovoltaic power supply system). These units must be installed in parallel on the DC networks to be protected and provide common and different modes protection. Its installed location are recommended at both ends of the DC power supply line (solar panel side and incerter/converter […]
MC4 Solar Connector is the name of the connection type on all new solar panels, providing an IP67 waterproof and dust proof safe electrical connection. MC4 Solar Connector will not connect with older MC3 type Connector. The MC4 Solar Connector work best with 4mm and 6mm solar cable. The picture above shows all the parts […]
Knowing individual surge components is helpful to understand, but what drives the standards for SPDs are performance aspects or features for each device. After identifying the power distribution system to which the SPD is to be connected, one should compare different available devices by the following: 1. Maximum Continuous Operating Voltage (MCOV). The MCOV is the […]
