Solar cells are designed to handle lightning strikes or electrical surges by incorporating protective measures into their design. These measures often include surge protection devices, such as varistors or lightning arrestors, which divert excessive electrical energy away from the solar cells and into a grounding system. This helps to prevent damage to the cells and the overall solar system, ensuring their safe operation even during such events.
Solar cells are designed to handle lightning strikes or electrical surges by incorporating protective mechanisms. This includes surge protectors, lightning arresters, and grounding systems. These components divert the excessive electrical energy away from the solar cells, preventing damage to the cells and other connected devices.
Solar cells do not have built-in protection against lightning strikes or electrical surges. However, they are usually connected to a surge protection device or a lightning arrestor to divert the excessive current away from the solar panel system. This helps to minimize the risk of damage to the solar cells and associated equipment.
