In photovoltaic systems a large amount of electrical connectors has been used in the combination of serial and parallel structures of the modules. Due to the high DC voltages and the aging of the systems, long-lasting arc faults can occur which may cause serious fires. As an initial step to develop sensor-devices for detecting arc faults in photovoltaic systems, a test set-up consisting of several...
