Solar Energy – A Bright Idea!
“I’d put my money on the sun and solar energy. What a
source of power! I hope we don’t have to wait ‘til oil and coal
run out before we tackle that.”
- Thomas Edison
Course Aim -
• The Training Program of the STERLING & WILSON organizing a
series of 3-days introductory courses and workshops on “Concept of
Solar Energy”.
• This program aims at training people in basic concept of solar
energy.

field. The program is useful for technician trainers in various
disciplines: electrical, mechanical, civil, computer and systems.
• The main focus areas will be component specifications, system
design and integration, installation and testing technics as well as
operation and maintenance procedures.
Different types of “Solar”

CERTIFICATES
• IEC 61215: Module’s mechanical stability and compliance with electrical parameters
• IEC 61730: Module meet the requirements for electrical and mechanical operating safety during it entire
expected service life.
• IEC 61701: Salt Mist Corrosion Test
Accelerated corrosion test to the coated PV modules to predict its suitability in use as a protective finish.
• IEC 62716: Ammonia Corrosion Test
In farms. Ammonia leads to ageing of PV modules. Degradation leads to lower energy yield and therefore, a lower
return rate for the operator.
• IEC 62804 : Potential Induced Degradation Test(PID)
PID test helps in the mounting of the modules. This test is done due to the contact with the ground.

Electrical Design Layout and Shading
Technology Selection
Solar PV Panel
• PV Panels converts sunlight directly into electricity. PV gets its name from the process of
converting light (photons) to electricity (voltage), which is called the PV effect.
• Types
– Multi/Poly Crystalline Modules (Efficiency of 14%-16%)
– Mono Crystalline Modules (Efficiency of 15% -17%),High Efficiency Cell (17% to 20%)
– Thin Film Modules (Efficiency of 10%-12%)
■ It is always selected based upon site and client requirement.
■ Temperature coefficient of power plays an important role in hot climates.
■ PV panels will generate its Rated power (As Mentioned in Datasheets) only at Standard Test
Condition (STC).
Efficiency of the Solar PV Module
• High efficiency doesn’t mean better, it just means your panels use less space on your roof.
• Efficiency isn’t usually a critical concern unless you have an enough space on your roof to install
PV Panels.
• The most efficient solar panels cost a little more, so they’re a less common choice.
• When the Efficiency of the Solar panel is high means the area required to achieve Required
power will be less
• Example : I am Considering 38.4 kWp System with 120 Nos of 320Wp Modules
• PV Module 1 - 320Wp with 19.60% Efficiency
• PV Module 2 - 320Wp with 16.47% Efficiency
Modules with 19.6% Modules with 16.47%
Inverter Selection
• Inverter capacity selected based on Solar PV Panel capacity.
• First, determine the PV array’s location. The available area for the modules, shading issues, the need for using multiple roof
orientations, These site limitations will also play a role in determining what inverter is appropriate for your
location.
• PV arrays produce less than their STC rating, due mostly to conditions that differ from
STC—like higher cell temperatures, lower irradiance, and module soiling.
• When predictable system losses are taken into account, a PV array expect to operate at
around 70% to 80% of the STC rating, So the size of the PV array can be designed to
exceed the inverter’s power rating.
• Many inverter manufacturers specify simply that a PV array’s STC rating should be no
more than 125% of the inverter’s continuous output rating - known as the “sizing ratio”.
Inverter Selection
• Sizing Ratio = DC Capacity / AC Capacity = 37.5 kWp / 30 KW = 1.25
• For utility-scale power plants, central inverters are preferred over String Inverters.
• For different module specification, string inverters are recommended for minimizing
the mismatch losses.
• For sites with different shading conditions or orientations, string inverters are more
suitable.
• In cases where the panels are all oriented and angled the same way, Central
inverters offer the best optimal production with lower DC Watt unit cost.

Sample DC and AC Cable Loss Calculation
DC Voltage Drop Calculation
DC Side Voltage Drop should be maintained Less than 2%
Example :
• Voltage of the system = 730V
• Current of the system = 8.22A
• Resistance of 4Sqmm Cu Cable = 5.090 Ohm/Km
• Distance between PV Array and Inverter = 180Meter
• Voltage Drop (V= I x R) = (I x L x 2 x R)/1000= (8.22 x 180 x 2 x 5.090)/1000 = 15.06V
• Voltage Drop in % = (15.06/730) *100 = 2.063% ( Which is greater than 2 %)
• Resistance of 6Sqmm Cu Cable = 3.390 Ohm/Km
• Voltage Drop (V= I x R) = (I x L x 2 x R)/1000= (8.22 x 180 x 2 x 3.390)/1000 = 10.031V
• Voltage Drop in % = (10.031/730) *100 = 1.374% ( Which is Less than 2 %)
AC Voltage Drop Calculation
AC Side Voltage Drop should be maintained Less than 3%
Example :
• Full Load Current = 152 A
• Resistance = 0.198
• Power Factor = 1 (Unity)
• Reactance = 0.0744
• SinQ = 0.6
• Length = 300 Mtr
• Line Voltage = 400V
• Voltage Drop= 1.732 x (Current)x(RCosØ+j SinØ)xLengthx100) / Line VoltagexNo of Runx1000
• Voltage Drop in % = (1.732 x 152 x (0.198x1 + 0.0744x0.6)x300x100)/415x1x1000 = 2.30%
Layout and Shading
• The PV Module Layout helps us to arrive Total PV Capacity can be installed, cable length
and What kind of Module Mounting structure can be used.
• A Shadow from a pipe, tree or any other object that comes between the sun and PV
system decreases the power Output.
• The continuous shadow will create a Hotspot and damage the PV Modules.
• If the rows of tilted modules are too close to each other, one row will cause a shadow on
the next, causing additional losses. If the modules are spaced out a lot, there are fewer
shadows, but that comes at the cost of space optimization.
Shadow Caused by Water tank
How The Shadow Affects Panel Output
Case-1 (Power Output = 100%) Case-2 (Power Output = 66%)
Case-3 (Power Output = 33%) Case-4 (Power Output = 0%)
