A lightning protection system not only protects the solar PV system but also provides reliable protection to your entire property and assets while safely diverting transient currents to the ground.
Therefore the need for optimized and reliable electrical protection against the influence of lightning and surge events becomes mandatory. A risk assessment per IEC 62305-2 should first be performed to understand better if an external lightning protection system (LPS) is required.
Distant lightning strikes or so-called indirect lightning strikes lead to conducted partial lightning currents (impulse waveform 10/350 μs) in the supply lines, or also to induced / capacitive couplings (impulse 8/20 μs) in the electronic components of the storage system itself (so-called LEMP = Lightning ElectroMagnetic Pulse) (Figure 1).
It also considers the required availability of the system. A risk analysis according to IEC 62305-2 is carried out to determine which external lightning protection measures are required, for example, which class of LPS needs to be considered in the planning and implemented in the lightning protection concept.
In addition, battery storage for the power grid forms the basis for energy management (so-called “peak shaving”). In order to provide optimum protection for the high-end electronics in storage containers, one needs a comprehensive lightning and surge protection system.
If PV power stations are equipped with a battery storage system, the electronic equipment, battery and inverter need to be protected against surges. Figure 2 shows a PV storage system (container construction) that discharges the direct lightning strike to the soil via the metal housing of the container.
