This International Standard gives guidance on the protection of overvoltage issues for both stand-alone and grid-connected photovoltaic power generating systems. It is intended to identify sources of overvoltage hazards (including lightning) to define the types of protection such as grounding, shielding, stroke interception and protective devices.
NOTE The abbreviation PVPGS is used throughout this standard for photovoltaic power generating system(s).
