    Digital ground fault detector for isolated (ungrounded) solar arrays

    The isoPV detects ground faults in isolated (ungrounded) solar arrays up to 793 VAC / 1100 VDC. The iso-PV monitors for ground faults by measuring the system's insulation resistance, providing early indication of ground faults before leakage current may even be present. Both AC and DC ground faults can be detected, including on systems that have high leakage capacitances.

    Designed specifically for photovoltaic arrays, the iso-PV satisfies the ground detection requirements of NEC article 690.35 for ungrounded DC solar arrays. Included are two components, the ground detector and the high voltage coupler. Both are required for operation (the voltage coupler may be installed in a separate cabinet to keep high voltage connections separate).

    The iso-PV features a digital display which shows the array's insulation resistance in real-time. Two SPDT contacts are available. The isoPV utilizes an external supply voltage for power, which allows for a pre-commissioning check for ground faults in all types of arrays.

  • IR155 10 Series

    Ground fault detector for level 3 electric vehicle chargers (EVSE)

    The IR155 10 series detects ground faults in ungrounded DC electric vehicle chargers (level 3). The device monitors the system's insulation resistance between the charger and ground, for systems up to 800 VDC. The advanced measurement method monitors both the DC side as well as the AC motor side of the system, even through high system interference conditions caused by motor control processes. The devices are PCB-style with a very small footprint and light weight. Various connector options are available.

    Version IR155-3210 is a UL 2231 recognized component for electric vehicle charging stations, and utilizes an automotive rated connector.
