    • The impact of direct lightning strike damages on PV modules in a large Malaysian PV farm 

      Chew, Thum Peng; Xian, Sean Lee Xi (The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2021)
      Many lightning risk analyses avoided considering the role of the PV Module’s aluminium frame as a natural lightning air termination system or if such a role is considered, assumed that the ‘thin’ aluminium frame, would not ...
    • Lightning shielding with shading avoidance for a photovoltaic (PV) farm 

      Chew, Thum Peng; Xian, Sean Lee Xi (The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia (IEM), 2022)
      The special requirement of a PV farm lightning shielding system is that it should not introduce shadow on the active PV surfaces so as to avoid impaired PV generation output. By using a simple, repeatable-unit PV row made ...
