RISKS  WITH SOLAR  SYSTEMS

INSTALLATION,

FIRE,

PROPERTY DAMAGE,

ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE

AND OTHER LIABILITY

Solar is a growing sector of energy and jobs. Various worker health and safety hazards exist in this manufacture, installation, and maintenance of solar energy.

The people working in the solar energy business need to protect their labors from hazards

The people and labors also need to familiar with standard practice and precautions to protect themselves from hazards and injury

Hazards and Controls

Workers and peoples related to the solar industry are exposed to a variety of hazards,

Like

Arc flashes burn

Arc flashes blast

Electric shock

Falls,

Thermal burn

Accident can cause injury and death. Solar energy employers related grid connecting solar system

Required to implement the safe work practices and worker training requirements as per

Transmission and Distribution Standard,

The hazards are not unique and standard practice and standard guideline can cover it

Property Damage Risks Associated with Solar Panels

Solar installations are increasing rapidly because increasing energy prices and decreasing solar material and installation cost. Also government promotions, facilities, like net metering, PPA, boot model.

If you come under group’s category you need to address additional risks.

•         Others that require access to the roof

Photovoltaic solar system may rarely cause building fire s directly but the solar system potentially dangerous if proper installation regular check up and preparation not done.

This information for solar photovoltaic systems solar power plant thermal solar systems like solar water heater not included

However potential risk associated with both types of systems, but the PV systems is poses more risk than thermal.

Property - Solar panels can be damaged by fire, hail, wind, water and poor roof drainage.  The cost to replace these systems may be significantly high .   An emerging problem that may increase the fire hazard associated with solar systems.
