Impact of Fault Detection and Localization on Photovoltaic System Performance and Maintenance

This paper investigates the impact of accurate fault detection and localization on the performance and maintenance of photovoltaic (PV) systems. The study utilizes a simulation-based approach to evaluate the economic benefits of early fault detection and timely corrective actions. Key performance indicators such as energy yield, system efficiency, and maintenance costs are considered.
