How to maintain a distributed solar power station on a daily basis? Let's take a look with Hengyuantai.
Regular Inspections
It is recommended to regularly inspect the home solar power station. If any issues are found, please contact the technical management personnel promptly. Do not step on or place heavy objects on the surface of the panels to avoid causing micro-cracks in the solar cells. Flammable liquids, gases, and other hazardous materials should not be placed near the solar panels.Cleaning the Panels
When cleaning the panels, use clean, damp, soft cotton cloths or sponges. Do not use alkaline or acidic cleaning agents. Avoid spraying cold water on the panels during midday when temperatures are high, as the thermal expansion and contraction may damage the panels. The frequency of cleaning depends on the accumulation of dirt. Normally, rainwater can help clean the surface of the panels, reducing the need for frequent cleaning. To avoid the risk of electric shock or potential damage to the panels during cleaning in high temperatures and strong sunlight, it is recommended to clean the panels in the early morning or late afternoon.Snow Accumulation in Winter
In winter, if there is heavy snow accumulation on the panels, it should be cleared. Soft materials can be used to gently push the snow off, taking care not to scratch the glass. The snow on the panels melts quickly when they are in use. The melting process starts from the top and the snow gradually slides off the back as it melts. If the gap between the panels is too small, it may cause blockage, slowing down the snow melting process.Thunderstorms in Summer
During summer thunderstorms, since distributed solar power systems are equipped with lightning protection devices, it is generally not necessary to disconnect the system. However, for safety reasons, it is advisable to turn off the circuit breakers in the combiner box to disconnect the solar panels from the electrical circuit, preventing potential damage from direct lightning strikes that the lightning protection system cannot handle.
This is how Hengyuantai explains the daily maintenance of distributed solar power stations.
