Introduction
With the growing demands of electricity, Solar emerges as an eco-friendly, cost-efficient and easily
install setup. We make huge investment for setting up solar power systems, so the long term
system reliability and maintenance levels are the major concern. Installations of PV system on
rooftops or lawn are very regularly exposed to lightning and indirect surges which can reduce the
desired life expectancy.

Reasons behind damages of Solar Power System

Lightning is a common cause of failures in photovoltaic (PV) or solar system. The direct and
indirect lightning effects are as given below:
Direct lightning strikes
Ground Potential Rise
Bad/ Improper Grounding System
Destructive surge voltages from switching operations
