Assessment tomorrow

[T0M0]

Hi All,

Got me assessment tomorrow and currently filling the PV commissioning test from. Could someone confirm the "Protective Device" is the DC isolator, and the details requested are its specification? (eg dc rating = the rating of the switch which is 450V)

While I'm on the subject, any constructive advice regarding preparation for the assessment?

Thanks for reading and any help appreciated.

A protective device is something that 'protects' the circuits automatically - fuses/MCBs/RCDs.

DC isolator is what it says an isolator.

Good luck.

Thanks for the reply yellowvanman - that's what i thought but there is no protection apart from the inverter as it is not needed on the dc side. Any idea what I enter, if anything?

Thank again.

Nothing then! If you've got any doubts ask the assessor, they are only human and such a small thing like that you could rectify on the spot!

your dc cables wont necessarily have any fuse protection, they wont produce enough psc to trigger an mcb
