Active Array™ - Safety
Protecting People and Property

With recent high profile fires caused by faulty PV installations and the PV industry becoming more professional and quality conscious, more and more demands are being put on manufacturers by users, fire officers and insurers to introduce safety mechanisms into traditional PV technology.

Fire and electrical safety

Active Array™’s unique low cost technology is a major advance in Photovoltaic Safety.

  • Most importantly, Active Array™ is constantly monitoring the overall health of the system and is able to detect and alert on fault conditions including overheating, over voltage, or high resistance BEFORE these conditions become a danger
  • Remote shut off at the module level in an emergency – fire departments can isolate before proceeding
  • Automatic shut off on overheating
  • Safe installation, with a default safe mode so installers are never working with live devices

Active Array™ adds valuable safety functionality at a low cost.
