The rapid growth of the photovoltaic industry necessitates the development of innovative solutions to ensure the safe operation of these systems. One of the most critical challenges in photovoltaic installations is ensuring protection against electric shock under both operational and emergency conditions, as well as minimizing the risk of fire spread in case of an installation fire. Existing safety measures do not provide a sufficient level of protection, particularly in terms of fire safety. To address these shortcomings, a comprehensive safety system has been developed. This system includes a photovoltaic panel shutter and a safety switch device, which enables the short-circuiting of individual panel outputs while also providing a break in the DC circuit. The proposed solution can be classified as part of the Balance of System (BoS). The effectiveness of this safety system has been validated through both numerical simulations and experimental investigations. Furthermore, an economic analysis indicates that implementing this system will not significantly impact the overall cost of a photovoltaic system.
