Description

The Arc Fault/Ground Fault Kit monitors for arc-fault and ground-faults, activating the remote trip circuit breakers which disconnect PV and Battery breakers when a fault is detected. The arc-fault sensor monitors for specific noise on the PV wires that are only present when arcing is occuring. The GF sensor looks for a 0.5A current differential between the PV wires to identify current flowing to ground.

Installation is straightforward. The Hawke’s Bay and Barcelona controllers include a modular option board, which the circuit board included in this kit plugs onto. The wiring that runs to the PV array is route through the sensor cores for detection.
