Principle of infrared thermal imaging of photovoltaic panels
Infrared thermal imaging inspection of solar panels involves using infrared technology to detect and analyze the thermal patterns on the surface of solar modules. This inspection technique is commonly used for preventive maintenance and troubleshooting in solar photovoltaic (PV). . Users are responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable laws, codes of practice, and safety requirements relevant to infrared thermographic inspections of photovoltaic systems. Included is a mini survey to review these common faults and PV array fault detection. . Infrared (IR) thermography has become one of the most valuable tools for inspecting photovoltaic (PV) systems because it allows defects to be detected while the plant is operating, without interrupting power generation.
