This paper presents a novel approach that simultaneously enables photovoltaic (PV) inversion and flexible arc suppression during single-phase grounding faults. Inverters compensate for ground currents through an arc-elimination function, while outputting a PV direct current (DC) power supply.
These rules mandate that all solar inverters operating at any DC voltage higher than 120 V have to include AFCI protection to prevent fires caused by arc faults. Solar inverters without AFCIs were still allowed until the end of 2024, but from 2025 onwards, compliance is mandatory for certification and safety inspections.
To achieve flexible arc suppression in a PV inverter, the end of it should be connected in Y-type and the neutral point should be grounded. However, grounding creates a zero-sequence current loop, which leads to an increase in the zero-sequence current.
In the U.S., the National Electric Code (NEC) has required AFCI protection for solar PV systems with DC circuits over 80 V since 2011 (NEC 2023 690.11). This regulation mandates that all systems installed in or on a building must include measures to detect and interrupt arc faults.
