The second stage - Heliospower versus Sunsol

In the finals Heliospower from Radom and Sunsol from Gdańsk were struggling. Teams employed completely different ways of realising the task simultaneously.

- At this stage, we wanted to show the need to measure insulation resistances and pay attention to the elements that installers sometimes forget about, for example, the appropriate length of protective conductor - says Bogdan Szymański, President of the Photovoltaic Industry Association.

 A few traps awaited the participants. Teams had to mount AC and DC protections and connect to the inverter. They also had to select the appropriate protection and other components.
