quality assurance programme forming a part of the Contract.
b) PRE-COMMISSIONING AND TRIAL OPERATION TEST
On completion of erection of the equipment and before start up, each item of the
equipment shall be thoroughly cleaned and then inspected jointly by the purchaser or his
authorized representative and the Contractor for correctness and completeness of
installation and acceptability for start-up, leading to initial pre-commissioning tests at site.

main aim in this protection shall be to reduce the over voltage to a tolerable value before
it reaches the PV or other sub system components. The source of over voltage can be
lightning, atmosphere disturbances etc. The entire space occupying the SPV array shall
be suitably protected against Lightning by deploying required number of Lightning
Arrestors. Lightning protection should be provided as per IEC 62305 standard. The
protection against induced high-voltages shall be provided by the use of metal oxide
varistors (MOVs) and suitable earthing such that induced transients find an alternate

9. EARTHING PROTECTION
i. Each array structure of the PV yard should be grounded/ earthed properly as per
IS:3043-1987. In addition, the lighting arrester/masts should also be earthed inside the
array field. Earth Resistance shall be tested in presence of the representative of PEDA as

prevents the DC-to-AC inverters from continuing to feed power into small sections of the
grid, known as “islands.” Powered islands present a risk to workers who may expect the
area to be unpowered, and they may also damage grid-tied equipment. The Rooftop PV
system shall be equipped with islanding protection. In addition to disconnection from the
grid (due to islanding protection) disconnection due to under and over voltage conditions
shall also be provided.
