Won this!
Congratulations to Graham Warner, the winner of EP's March issue prize draw.
Graham is now the winner of a Seaward Solar PV100 test kit. The PV100 test kit incorporates a dedicated multi-function electrical tester, all test leads and connections, as well as an AC/DC current clamp to make compliance testing fast, safe and simple for those involved in solar panel installation. The new PV100 tester is capable of carrying out all electrical tests required by IEC 62446 on grid connected PV systems and eliminates the need for multiple test instruments for PV panel electrical installation and connection. With the push of a single button the new combination tester carries out the required sequence of electrical tests in a safe and controlled manner, avoiding the risk of contact with exposed live DC conductors.
All required measurements are performed automatically and displayed clearly with confirmation of whether the test results are acceptable.
The instrument will also compare the performance of multiple strings and indicate whether the open circuit voltage or short circuit current measurements deviate by more than 5%.
The tester comes complete with MC4 and Sunclix test leads that allow it to be connected quickly, easily and safely to all standard PV modules and arrays to test earth continuity‚ insulation resistance‚ open circuit voltage and short circuit currents. As part of the kit, an AC/DC current clamp is also provided for the measurement of operation currents. The complete kit, including all test probes‚ alligator clips, Sunclix and MC4 adaptor leads, is supplied in a convenient carrying case.
