Do lightning arrestors really work for Solar systems?
I’m thinking of putting some arrestors into my PV and Wind system. Does anyone know *from experience*, meaning a lightning strike to your system, if they really work? I spoke with SMA America and they said they are not UL approved and have no evidence that they do anything. My installer said that the inverters will still get fried.
any condiuctive rod that goes higher than your roof line and is connected to the earth with a conductive cable would offer some protection to your PV system as well as other parts of your house,
I doubt any rod would give total protection
as far as arrestors they sound hokey
if the cost of installation is more than your iinsurance deductible the value is questionable
