How to Identify Potential Solar Panel Issues
While solar panels are generally low-maintenance, it’s important to monitor their condition to avoid underperformance. Here are a few ways to check for potential issues:
- Check Generation Readings: Compare current energy production with historical data in your handbook.
- Visual Inspection: Look for surface debris, dirt, or lichen on accessible panels, as these can hinder efficiency.
Regular monitoring helps ensure your panels are performing optimally and allows you to address any issues before they affect energy production. Keep your system in top condition for maximum savings.
Common Solar Panel Issues
While solar panels are reliable, a few issues can occur over time. Common problems include:
- Dirt and debris accumulation: Dirty panels can reduce efficiency, impacting energy production.
- Bird nests or wildlife damage: These can cause obstructions or damage to the system.
- Inverter faults: Simple resets often fix inverter errors.
- System shutdowns: These can happen during severe weather or technical faults.
If you notice any issues, it’s crucial to act promptly to avoid further damage and ensure efficient operation.
What to Do If Your System Isn’t Working Properly
If your solar system stops generating energy, here’s a simple troubleshooting guide:
- Reset the Inverter: Turn off both AC and DC isolators, wait 5 minutes, then turn them back on.
- Check for Fault Codes: If the issue persists, refer to the inverter’s manual for specific error codes.
- Contact an Engineer: If the system still isn’t working, get in touch with our engineers for professional support.
Taking these steps ensures you can quickly identify and resolve any issues with your solar system.
