Solar Maintenance — Maximise PV Efficiency Maintaining your Solar Power System is a must to ensure ongoing optimum performance. Annual inspections including reporting for damage to the panel connections, wiring, inverters and isolators ensures that the safety and longevity of the system will not be compromised. When water and dust mix repeatedly and dry on solar panels, mould and lichen growth is imminent. This build up restricts light absorption to the panels, compromising performance by up to 80%. Prolux recommends including Solar Maintenance as part of your Planned Preventative Maintenance Schedule to maximise energy production and ensure safety assurance. *Annual Solar Maintenance on a 20kw Solar PV System is approximately $600.00. #solar #facilitymanager #electricians #buildingmaintenance #fms #sustainability

🚀 Choosing the Right Wiring for Solar PV Systems: Leapfrog vs. Daisy-Chain 🌞 In large-scale solar projects, selecting the correct wiring method is crucial for maximizing efficiency and reliability. Here’s why Leapfrog Wiring is often preferred over Daisy-Chain Wiring: 1️⃣ Improved Electrical Efficiency Shorter wire lengths and reduced resistance lead to lower power losses. 2️⃣ Better Management of Partial Shading Leapfrog Wiring isolates the effect of shading on individual panels, ensuring minimal impact on the overall system. 3️⃣ Lower Thermal Losses Distributed current flow reduces heat generation, enhancing safety and efficiency. 4️⃣ Easier Maintenance & Troubleshooting Its modular design allows for faster fault detection and repairs. 5️⃣ Cost Savings in the Long Run With fewer wires and higher energy yield, it offers a better return on investment. The result? Enhanced performance, reduced losses, and improved reliability—making Leapfrog Wiring the ideal choice for large-scale solar PV projects. Let’s innovate and build smarter solar systems! 💡 #SolarEnergy #RenewableEnergy #SolarPV #Efficiency #Sustainability 📷: www.alternergy.co.uk
