Comparative study on various type of lightning arrester at solar farm

The Photovoltaic (PV) system is vulnerable to a lightning strike. This overvoltage from lightning strikes could potentially damage PV components, including inverter, cable and the panel itself. To cater this issue, a lightning protection system (LPS) had been installed throughout the solar farm area...

This paper focuses on studying and simulating PV solar farms electrical field behavior in various lighting protection systems.
