Dear Boštjan:
I participated in most of the drafting of IEC 62368-1. Please
feel free to ask questions. So did Pete Perkins. I don't know
if others also subscribe to this group.
Best regards,

Dear Boštjan:
If the solar cells are hit by lightning, then the DC and inverter
system will likely be destroyed, and the transient will propagate
into the AC system. There is no way to protect against a direct
lightning strike except to use a system of lightning rods, and
they may not provide
Bostjan,
Even though PV array can be subject to lightning strikes, to my knowledge
there is no specific requirement for OV transients occurring on the DC side
of your inverter. This leaves you in a bit of a quandary fro spacings
determination on the DC side, especially if you have no transformer
Dear Rich,
Thank you. DC input comes from solar cells therefore from outside. UL 1741
states that OVC IV needs to be used and for 120/240V it means 4000V. So what
transient should I use from DC side?
Why table 8.1 in UL840 also mentions dc input?
Best regards,
Bostjan

Dear Boštjan:
Despite UL1741 and UL 840, OVC does not apply to DC. There is
no research that I know of that supports use of AC OVC to DC.
If the 450 V DC is not outside the building or is otherwise not
subject to lightning-caused overvoltages, OVC does not apply.
Likewise, if the 450 V DC o
Dear experts,
I am trying to figure out how to determine correct spacings for non-isolated
inverter. According UL1741 OVC IV needs to be considered for inverter. From
table 8.1 from UL840 I get a transients of 8,0kV for 450VDC input. Is that
correct?
Output of inverter is connected to AC grid
