METHOD FOR DETECTING ARCS IN PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEMS AND SUCH A PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM
First Claim
1. Method for detecting arcs in a direct-current path of a photovoltaic system, wherein values of a current (IDC) of the direct-current path are detected during a repeating time frame (7) and a mean value (8) is generated, wherein during the time frame (7), values of a voltage (UDC) of the direct-current path are detected and a mean value (8′
- ) is generated, and that based on the mean values (8, 8′
) of the current (IDC) and the voltage (UDC), at least one detection signal (9) and at least one detection threshold (10) are continuously calculated by means of a calculation method.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for detecting arcs in a direct-current path of a photovoltaic system, wherein values of a current (IDC) of the direct-current path are detected during a repeating time frame (7) and a mean value (8) is generated, and such a photovoltaic system. In order to reliably detect arcs by means of a component of the photovoltaic system, values of a voltage (UDC), of the direct-current path are detected during the time frame (7) and a mean value (8, 8′) is generated, and at least one detection signal (9) and at least one detection threshold (10) are continuously calculated based on the mean values (8, 8′) for the current (IDC) and the voltage (UDC) by means of a calculation method.
