ABSTRACT
In most of the geographical locations in the United States, solar power facilities experience a steady-state loading when inverters are operating. When the sun comes out, there is a dampened reaction process and loading on the transformer is more constant. Unfilled compounds are mostly transparent and are used when the lowest viscosity is needed and defective components need to be identified easily for replacement and repair. Castings are available of sensitive electronic components, potting telecommunications equipment, thermal cut-out switches, potting ballasts, pumps, surge suppressors, connectors, switches, relays, coils, transformers, power supplies, resistors, solenoids, proximity switches, transistors, sensors, etc. For dry-type or resin-cast distributed photovoltaic (DPV) transformers, suitable solar potting and encapsulating compounds are used to abate and mitigate thermal cycling effects. Solar potting and encapsulating compounds extend the life of distributed photovoltaic grid transformers (DPV-GTs), power supplies, electronic devices, and modern high intensity discharge automotive headlight systems through improved heat dissipation and component protection from shock.
