Design and Application of PCB-mounted SPDs for PV Inverters

Abstract

This article analyzes the safety of the design and application of printed circuit board mounted (PCB-mounted) surge protective devices (SPD) used in the AC side and DC side of photovoltaic inverters (PV inverters). By combining the specific application environment of PV inverter systems, this article provides some points to be considered when designing and applying the PCB-mounted SPDs, for ensuring the application safety of PCB-mounted SPDs.
