HOW TO MAKE MAINTENANCE FOR SOLAR SYSTEMS
Table of Contents
#1.How do I avoid Solar System Failure?
Maintenance is required to ensure that the solar system continues to operate permanently. In addition, there are certain steps you should take to maintain and repair system damage to prevent system failure.
#2.Maintenance of Water Solar Heaters
The intervention on solar panels is carried out in dry climates, elsewhere the rain makes sure to remove dust which could interfere with the solar collectors.
The control should be carried out every 3 to 5 years, to ensure their proper functioning, it will be necessary. Obviously, make sure that nothing interferes with the sensors and check that a tree has not grown excessively to shade the solar panels.
The visual inspection will still be carried out, but there will be a more serious control to allow your device to last longer and stay as good as ever. Also, you have to check that everything is stable and that there is no leakage in the hydraulic circuit.
A simple emptying may be necessary after a winter particularly cold, especially on devices whose the ball remains outside. For a device with separate elements with a pumped electric, it will sometimes be necessary to have the pressure of the coolant and of course make sure the pump is working properly.
#3.Maintenance of Photovoltaic Solar Systems
- Check the system regularly to make sure it is working properly.
- Check that the user is using and maintain the system correctly.
- Detect and locate technical faults.
- Perform repairs
Upkeeping
- solar module cleaning.
- solar module cleaning.
- Add the distilled water to the batteries.
- regulator maintenance.
Maintenance
1-Control visit
- Checks that all lamps and current prices work.
- Check the electrolyte level in the battery.
- Check that the user performs daily tasks correctly.
- Check the battery voltage, density, and electrolyte quality.
- Measure the voltage.
- Check the charge regulator lights.
- Check the solidity of the connections: solar module, lights, outlet, switches, regulator, and battery.
2-Repair visit
A/ Total failure
- Check that the circuit breakers for tabs and sound sockets in the on position.
- Remove and check fuses, replace, or replace.
- check the electrolyte level in the battery.
- check that all cable connections to the battery and the charge controller are connected and tight
- check the battery voltage, density, and electrolyte quality.
- visual inspection of modules.
- visual inspection of cables.
- measure the voltage at the output of the solar module.
- measure the voltage of the battery.
B/ Partial failure
- check that the circuit breaker is in the on position.
- check the voltage at the circuit breaker output.
- check the neon tube, replacing it with another.
- check the choke, replacing it with another.
- check that the wires are correctly connected to the circuit breaker outlet, to the wall switch, to the junction box (if installed), and to the slide bars.
- check the voltage at each connection, starting with the connection closest to the circuit breaker.
- control the operation of the wall switch by changing it
- changes the ruler.
- check that the circuit breaker “outlet” is in the on position.
- check the voltage at the circuit breaker output.
- unplug the audiovisual device to plug it into the other outlet.
- check the voltage at the input of the plug which does not work.
- check the connection of the wires in the plug which does not work.
- change the socket.
- check the audiovisual device by changing it (or try another small device in the socket).
- check that the wires are securely plugged in and tight in the male plug and that the plug is not damaged.
- check that the wires are correctly connected and tightened in the audio-visual device.
- check the cable of the audiovisual device or possibly change it.
Producing electricity and heating water through solar energy is a good idea that does not cost a lot of money, but do not forget that failure to maintain the system will lead to damage to some parts of it, and therefore you will lose more money every time. So we advise you to follow the maintenance steps continuously.
