Rapidly disconnect PV strings
Alencon’s Ground Arc and Rapid Disconnect unit, the GARD, is a solution for detecting harmful arc and ground faults in a PV array at the string level. e GARD also o ers the ability to rapidly and safely disconnect PV strings with either a mechanical switch or remote command. e GARD can be deployed as a standalone device or in conjunction with Alencon’s String Power Optimizer and Transmitter – the SPOT. Additionally, the GARD can be used with or without remote communications. e GARD can be installed in new
PV systems or as a retro t to existing solar plants.

Flexible, lightweight, and powerful solar module
MiaSolé Hi-Tech Corp’s FLEX-03W solar module, is now even more powerful, delivering up to 540W in 5.6kg, an improvement of nearly 10%. e exible solar module can be installed in any location, anywhere the sun shines, on and o the grid, even in places where it previously was not possible to install solar. MiaSolé’s FLEX- 03W solar modules have production e ciency of up to 17.8% and can be con gured in various sizes and modi ed to t any application without penetration through exteriors by adhering directly to surfaces with peel-and-stick adhesive. Because they are exible and only 1.5mm
thick, the modules are highly shatterproof and resistant to wind and seismic activity. MiaSolé’s exible solar product can be installed in a
wide array of locations and applications, such
as curved and unreinforced roofs and other structures; transportation applications; concrete roofs; o -grid products and materials such as awnings, tents, or jackets; infrastructure such as street lamps, reservoirs, and land lls; and o - grid installations in remote locations where grid connections are not available.
