4 Frequently Asked Questions about “How to deal with the photovoltaic panel flying off - SCM INDUSTRIES BESS”

Do I need to turn off my PV system before a storm?

Unless you have an off-grid system (not connected to utility service lines), we recommend that you turn off your PV system to isolate it from the utility to prevent a power surge from the grid. Disconnect the PV System from the grid before the storm hits. Turn off the PV disconnect (if installed) and your PV breaker (s).

How do I protect my PV system from a storm?

Disconnect the PV System from the grid before the storm hits. Turn off the PV disconnect (if installed) and your PV breaker (s). This will protect help your PV System against voltage surges coming from the grid. Remember that Enphase microinverters will not produce energy if the power grid is down.

What should I do if my PV system is damaged?

If you find damage did occur to the PV panels, inverters or wires, DO NOT touch the paneling or wiring since there is risk of electric shock (or electrocution). If there has not been visible wind damage in your area, you may reconnect your system once the storm has passed and the grid power has been restored.

Can I Turn my PV system back on if it rains?

Once the high winds and heavy rains have passed, you may turn the PV system back on. If there has been visible wind damage to your property or to your area, call your installer to check the integrity of the system before reconnecting your PV System to the grid.
