  • METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MONITORING A PHOTOVOLAIC SYSTEM
    Publication number: 20150288331
    Abstract: A device and a method for monitoring a photovoltaic system having a number of parallel-connected strings routed towards a common connecting lead for a reverse current. In the method it is provided for a current flow to be detected in a preferred direction in each of the strings and for a first total current flow to be created therefrom, for a current flow to be detected in the preferred direction in the connecting lead and for a second total current flow to be created therefrom, and for the first total current flow to be compared with the second total current flow, wherein a reverse current is recognized if the first total current flow deviates from the second total current flow by more than a tolerance value.
