The state of the solar market in Bangladesh

Bangladesh is one of the leading economies in the world, according to the World Bank’s annual GDP report of 2019. The country’s energy sector has grown tremendously over the last 40 years. Today, 85 % of its population has access to electricity, thanks to one of the world’s most advanced domestic solar power programs.

 Currently, Bangladesh’s solar capacity stands at 416 Megawatts. Considering that the country enjoys substantial solar irradiation levels, there is significant room for improvement. So, what is Bangladesh’s expected solar market performance as we look to the future?

Well, the government of Bangladesh recently released a strategic plan dubbed the National Solar Energy Roadmap. The plan’s objective is to put up 40 Gigawatts of solar energy by 2041. The draft explicitly states that 40% of this expected capacity must come from rooftop solar installations. The implementation of this plan will propel Bangladesh’s solar market to the next level while creating vast opportunities. As a solar installer or industry professional eyeing Bangladesh’s budding solar market, you should be excited about the future.

Bangladesh’s solar equipment production and supply capacity

Are you worried about the ease of access to solar equipment in Bangladesh? There is no need to worry because several equipment manufacturers and distributors operate within Bangladesh’s solar market. Still, you can easily import any solar equipment that may not be available locally.

The country boasts of several ports through which you can receive solar equipment from international markets. It also has a reasonably advanced transport and logistics infrastructure. Therefore, you can safely deliver equipment to your project site.

If you ever need to purchase solar equipment for a project in Bangladesh, the Solarfeeds family is here for you. Visit the inquiry page on our website and request a quote rather than spending valuable time chasing after good quotes. I can assure you that we’ve got you covered.

Electric Breaker

Electric Breakers

When installing a solar panel system, you have to be familiar with the electric breakers and how it works with a solar PV system to avoid future electric problems. The electric breaker is one of the main components of a solar power system that provides safety mechanisms. If ever the electrical wiring of your system has too much current flowing through it, these breakers can easily cut the power until your solar installer can fix the system’s problem. 

For today’s article, we will discuss electric breakers and their function in solar photovoltaic systems.

What is an Electric Breaker?

An electric or circuit breaker is an electrical switch designed to protect electrical circuits from damage caused by overloading of current or a short circuit. The basic function of an electric breaker is to prevent the current flow once protective relays detect a fault in the system. 

Although it is frequently interchanged with a fuse, which is the simplest Over Current Protection device (OCPD) in electrical circuits, a circuit breaker, is a much-evolved type of device that interrupts the current flow. The main difference between the two is electric breaker is resettable and the fuse is not. The fuse sacrifices itself while protecting the system to overheat, while the circuit breaker can withstand hundreds and thousands of operations. Another difference is that electric breakers are used with relatively higher currents. 

Components of Circuit Breaker

A circuit breaker system is composed of three parts. These three components are the sensing system, relay, and the combination of contacts and the contact actuator. A sensing system is responsible for detecting an overload situation, while a relay is responsible for transferring the information to the switching arrangement, and the combination of contacts and the contact actuator. This electric arrangement is usually observed in power transmission and distribution networks dealing with very high currents, voltages, and powers. 

Circuit Breakers Calculation in Solar Panel Systems

When connecting circuit breakers to the PV system, you have to follow the recommended calculations to avoid future problems and damage to the entire system. The recommendations for using overcurrent protection devices including circuit breakers in solar modules against overloading conditions are given in IEC 60269-6 (volume 6 of IEC 60269-6) and also UL 248-19. 

For circuit breakers, IEC recommends a 20% and 25% margin in voltage and overload current. Most of the time, the ratings are specified by the solar manufacturers at given ambient conditions. If the temperatures exceed this given value, derating must be applied according to the manufacturer’s specifications. 

When it comes to breaker sizes for solar panels, NEC requires the breakers to be sized at 125% of the inverter’s rated output. So a 7680W inverter that outputs 240V, outputs 32A (7680W ÷ 240V = 32A). That requires a 40A breaker (32A x 125% = 40A).

Final Thoughts

If you owned a solar panel system at home,  you have to understand how circuit breakers work to prevent catching fires at home. These devices are one of the major components of the PV solar system as they protect the system wiring from getting too hot and accidentally catch fire if short circuits occurred. Thus, understanding the breaker itself and its proper calculations in the PV system should be done.
