Definitions

  • the invention relates to an arrangement for inherent arcing protection in the electrical direct current network of photovoltaic systems.
  • sparks or arcing faults can occur at sufficiently high voltages and currents between the contacts. Unlike with alternating voltages, where the arcing normally goes out at the next zero crossing of the voltage wave due to the change in polarity, there is a risk under dc voltage conditions that the arcing fault is maintained for a long time and leads to considerable damage to the contact points and possibly the surrounding elements. Such arcing faults must therefore be recognized and switched off for fire protection reasons.
  • circuit arrangements and / or modules are known from the prior art which extinguish a previously detected arcing fault by disconnecting current paths or by creating additional current paths (reactive arcing protection).
  • Switching devices located in the operating circuit (circuit breakers, load switches, residual current circuit breakers, circuit breakers or short-circuiting devices, top switches) receive external excitation from a fault detection unit (arcing fault detector).
  • arc detection unit arc detection unit
  • US Pat. No. 5,185,687 discloses an arc detection arrangement which uses a field sensor to detect an electromagnetic field which is emitted by a Arcing is generated.
  • the location of the probable occurrence of the arcing fault must be known beforehand.
  • modulation switches are used to switch off operating and fault currents, in which the zero current crossings are forced by an oscillating circuit above the electrical contacts. Furthermore, solutions are known which reduce the spark formation over individual switch contacts by using additional parallel capacitances to the contacts. The concepts with modulation switches and capacities above the switch contacts for arc quenching are only effective as a result. It is important to ensure that the arc is extinguished in the switchgear or on the contact pair.
  • an arc protection device was developed that takes advantage of the voltage drop of more than 10 V caused by the arc.
  • the main deficiency of this arc protection device lies in the fact that, depending on the network structure, many measuring devices have to be used and the associated information has to be continuously evaluated. If this is not done, not all possible errors are recorded.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide an arrangement for permanently effective arc protection in electrical direct current networks of photovoltaic systems which does not require sensitive arc detection.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that the conditions of existence of the arcing fault are determined by the feeding network and that a stable burning arcing fault cannot occur at ideal voltage sources. While an arcing fault always burns at its ideal operating point at an ideal power source, an ideal voltage source always leads to an unstable operating point, so that the arc is not popular. Therefore, by supplementing the direct current network or some of its components with electrical energy stores, the conditions of existence for an emerging or existing arc can deteriorate because the electrical energy stores, for example capacitors, act briefly like voltage sources.
  • the invention thus proposes the installation of one or more capacitive electrical stores in the direct current network of the photovoltaic system in order to avoid an arcing fault.
  • a capacitance connected in parallel to the arcing fault acts like an ideal voltage source for short periods.
  • the installation of an electrical capacity is technically very easy to implement.
  • the expected financial outlay is correspondingly low.
  • no reaction time is required for the protection.
  • the DC system is or is inherently arc-proof. To prevent accidental arcing, the detection of the type of fault (longitudinal or transverse faults) and the fault location in the DC network is no longer necessary when the invention is used. No switching devices are required to implement the protective effect.
  • the general condition for the effectiveness of the protective measure according to the invention is that the time constant of the network ⁇ NW must be greater than the thermal time constant of the arcing fault ⁇ L B; the following therefore applies: ⁇ NW > ⁇ L B •

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de protection inhérente contre des arcs électriques parasites dans un réseau électrique à courant continu d'installations photovoltaïques. Ces installations comprennent un ou plusieurs modules solaires (2) et au moins une charge électrique (1). La mise en circuit dans ce réseau à courant continu d'un ou de plusieurs systèmes d'accumulation électriques (3, 4, 6), qui sont connectés en permanence et dont les dimensions sont spécifiques à l'installation, permet d'empêcher ou de supprimer sensiblement instantanément l'apparition d'un arc électrique parasite. Ces systèmes d'accumulation, de préférence des condensateurs électriques, présentent des dimensions telles qu'ils mettent à disposition au niveau du lieu d'apparition de l'arc électrique parasite une source de tension sensiblement idéale pendant un temps permettant de déstabiliser l'arc électrique parasite.
