PV Protectors

(Photovoltaic Protection Devices) are engineered to protect solar arrays, inverters, and cabling from electrical faults and damaging surges. They ensure long-term system safety, stability, and compliance.

Key Features

  • Prevent overvoltage damage from lightning strikes or grid disturbances

  • Stop reverse current flow between strings or back into the inverter

  • Isolate electrical faults so damage doesn’t spread across the array

  • Maintain system compliance with modern electrical safety standards

  • Protect installers and property by preventing hazardous conditions

Technical Specifications

Capacity Range:

40A–100A (varies by switch)

Voltage Rating:

AC Isolation

IP Rating:

IP65 (weatherproof)

Lifespan:

25+ years

Standards:

BS 7671 Compliant

Why It's Essential

PV protectors are not optional—they are a critical safety and performance component of every PV system.

  • Protect your inverter (the most expensive component)

  • Reduce downtime from faults or surges

  • Prevent catastrophic system failures

  • Ensure long-term safety for engineers & occupants

  • Maintain compliance for insurance and certification

  • Extend your solar system’s operational lifespan

  • Protect your Feed-in Tariff (FIT) income
