Fonrich & TÜV Rheinland AFCI White Paper: A Deep Dive into DC Arc Fault Protection

-- Fonrich, a global leader in photovoltaic safety technology, in collaboration with TÜV Rheinland, proudly announces the release of its latest white paper titled “Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) for PV System Solutions.” This comprehensive document offers an in-depth exploration of DC arc fault detection, protection strategies, and the future of photovoltaic (PV) system safety.

As the solar industry accelerates toward higher voltage and larger-scale deployments, the risk posed by DC arc faults becomes increasingly critical. Fonrich’s white paper addresses this challenge head-on by analyzing the root causes of arc faults across residential, commercial, and utility-scale PV scenarios. The publication highlights key innovations in AFCI protection schemes including inverter-integrated, independent box, string-level, and module-level solutions backed by technical validations witnessed by TÜV Rheinland.

With a focus on practical implementation, economic feasibility, and regulatory compliance across global markets, the white paper outlines tested methodologies for detecting, identifying, and extinguishing arc faults in real-world applications. Notably, Fonrich’s advanced AFCI solutions demonstrate rapid shutdown capability, enhanced reliability, and system adaptability essential for meeting evolving safety mandates.
