Who should pay for the photovoltaic panel if it is struck by lightning
In some cases, you will have to pay for the damage. . While comprehensive research shows solar installations are remarkably resilient to extreme weather, lightning represents one risk factor worth addressing. When lightning damage does occur, it accounts for 32% of weather-related solar panel incidents, making proper protection a valuable investment. . Damage from lightning can occur in two primary ways: a direct strike to the panels or mounting hardware, or an indirect strike that induces a powerful surge into the system's wiring. Of the three, only one remained as a top cause of loss after a comprehensive damage assessment – wind. A damaging surge can occur from lightning that strikes a long distance from the system or between clouds. But can you help to mitigate the risk to your home, electronics and solar array? Absolutely.
