Protecting Your System From Fire

The two main causes of fires associated with solar PV arrays are lightning strikes and arc faults. At EV Solar & Battery Storage we design and install systems which help protect against both of these potentially devastating events.

Damage caused to your solar PV equipment will result in system downtime, costly repairs and extended payback time on investment. We can’t stop lightning from striking, but with the right system in place you can limit the damage it can cause. No system is 100% fail safe but by doing nothing you risk losing everything.
