THERMOSOLAR ENERGY: Thermosolar Energy is a technology for harnessing solar energy for heat (at low temperature); it is mainly used for the production of hot water in residential buildings, to heat water in swimming pools and for climatization plants and other application.THERMOELECTRIC ENERGY: Thermoelectric Energy: (Solar thermal power) is a technology that uses the sun […]

RESIDENTIAL  OR COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS OF PHOTOVOLTAIC: POWER PLANT APPLICATIONS OF PHOTOVOLTAIC:

Photo voltaic is the most recognizable solar energy technology; it is the most versatile, simplest to install and cheapest to maintain and provides a highly valued product: “electricity“. Grid Connected System: This is the most popular type of solar Photo voltaic system; it is integrated with the electricity network and allows to sell any excess

Photo voltaic technology is a term used to describe the system that converts solar energy into usable power, generating electricity from sunlight. On the earth surface there is more than sufficient solar radiation to satisfy a vastly increased demand for solar power systems. On average, each square meter of land is exposed to enough sunlight

The age during which convenient and abundant fossil energy resources were available to build new technologies and to support a sustained energy world transition is short.Renewable energy and methodologies have a clear role in future energy policy. Governments decided to develop aggressive long term actions that can accelerate the widespread applications of renewable energy and

A solar thermal power plant in principle works no differently than a conventional steam power plant. However, there is one important difference. No harm is done to the environment by burning coal, oil, natural gas or by splitting uranium to produce steam. It is produced solely by the energy that comes from the sun. In

n GENERAL PROVISIONS: The exposed conductive parts are interconnected and earthed either altogether or in groups, or individually. Protection against indirect contact is ensured by RCD having a sensitivity I Dn to meet the condition: (1) 25 V in damp premises, work site installations and farm buildings. The choice of RCD sensitivity, which depends on

Systems for insulation monitoring and help with first fault location have been developed and provide a significant reduction in the number of maintenance and repairs operations. The principle implemented consists in applying a low frequency or d.c. low voltage between the network to be monitored and earth using a suitable generator. When the insulation decreases

n GENERAL PROVISIONS: The IT earthing system does not require the power supply to be automatically disconnected on occurrence of an insulation fault, referred to as the “first fault”. Indeed, we have seen that for this system the touch voltages which develop on occurrence of a first insulation fault are not dangerous for persons. Thus, operation can

The different types of neutral point connection to earth are shown in table below. We can make a distinction between: The solidly (or directly) earthed neutral. The unearthed neutral, or high impedance-earthed neutral. Rresistance earthing. Reactance earthing. Petersen coil earthing.
