A photovoltaic (PV) power plant requires a range of equipment for the efficient generation, conversion, and transmission of electricity. Key components of a PV plant include PV modules, inverters, mounting systems, monitoring and control devices, circuit breakers, transformers, switchgear, and cables. PV modules are the primary source of power in a PV plant, while inverters convert the direct current (DC) output from the modules into alternating current (AC) for use in the grid. Mounting systems fix the modules in place, and monitoring and control devices ensure optimal system performance. Circuit breakers, transformers, switchgear, and cables are used for power regulation, voltage transformation, and distribution to the grid. Careful planning and selection of the appropriate equipment are necessary for a well-functioning and cost-effective PV plant.
