Fault Detection: Predictive & Reactive Capabilities
Precise specifications for solar PV fault detection distinguishing predictive faults (70-75%, 2-15 days warning) from reactive faults (25-30%, real-time only).
The Problem:
Traditional SCADA monitoring has 70-85% false positive rates and provides no advance warning. Operators miss gradual degradation patterns that lead to expensive failures.
What You'll Learn:
- Predictive faults (70-75%): Detectable 1-90 days in advance through gradual degradation patterns
- Reactive faults (25-30%): Instantaneous detection only (lightning, surges, mechanical damage)
- Inverter faults: 2-15 day warning for capacitor, IGBT, cooling system, control board issues
- String faults: CV-based detection for connector corrosion, wire degradation, bypass diode thermal issues
- Module degradation: 30-90 day prediction for hot spots, delamination, PID
- Digital twin advantage: 200+ data points/MW vs 4-8 for traditional PR monitoring
Based on: Research from NREL, Sandia Labs, IEEE studies, and operational data from 100+ MWp of GCC solar & BESS assets.
