IEC (EN) 62305-2 states procedures and data for the calculation of the risk resulting from lightning strikes into structures and for the choice of lightning protection systems. Actually, the technical guidelines for installation suggest protecting with SPD''s (surge protective device) both the DC and AC sides of the PV plant.
In order to minimize any dangerous overvoltage''s a low resistance earthing system is recommended – if possible lower than 10 Ohms. A single integrated earthing system is preferable, which is suitable for all purposes (i.e. lightning protection, power systems, telecommunications systems and data systems).

Guideline on Rooftop Solar PV Installation in Sri Lanka 2 Preface This document provides a general guideline and best practices guide for the installation of rooftop solar PV systems in Sri Lanka. The guide was prepared based on the applicable international standards and best industry practices around the world. This document would provide a guideline to plan and install a

exist on lightning protection for PV systems, except for MS 1837:2010 which focuses on the PV installation. Thus; there were no previous studies that dealt with lightning surge analysis prior to the solar PV installation for residential and commercial buildings or solar farms. There is no circuit model or test for the PV Rooftop system
So lightning protection is a two part process. First make sure there is a lightning arresting system completely separate from the PV system designed to attract lightning strikes and shunt them to ground. This is where the short, fat, and straight part comes in for all those conductors. The rest of lightning protection is about shunting that

The Lightning Protection Systems (LPS) associated with Surge Protection Device (SPD) are the effective protection against electromagnetic effects. This study estimated the values of overvoltage and overcurrent induced by lightning in 2.65 kW PVS under different configurations, with or without LPS, by Faraday''s Law of Induction. The estimation
Space Optimisation: The final goal of rooftop solar plants is to maximize the use of the limited area available. There needs to be coordination between the designers/installers of the lightning protection system and the rooftop solar system to make sure that space is optimized while still meeting minimum requirements such as separation distance.

In this paper, the lightning protection requirements of a typical residential building have been discussed and techniques have been provided to protect the building from both direct and indirect damages of lightning, with special attention to the protection of PV panels placed on the roof.
There is no circuit model or test for the PV Rooftop system dedicated to lightning surge studies, especially in aspects of SPD placement, selection of suitable ratings, cable length, and sizing, and number of SPDs required. Direct strikes may trigger fires and even explosions to the PV Rooftop installation.
This guideline also requires that LPL III and thus a lightning protection system accord-ing to class of LPS III be installed for rooftop PV systems (> 10 kWp) and that surge protection measures be taken. As a general rule, rooftop photovoltaic systems must not interfere with the existing lightning pro-tection measures.
It has been shown that for buildings with roof top PV systems only the avoidance of lightning attachment to unprotected parts of the building is not sufficient. Lightning currents passing through the lightning protection system may still affect the PV power system through inductive coupling.
A sensitivity analysis is necessary for the development of lightning overvoltage in a Rooftop PV system, bearing in mind the impact of lightning striking spot, the lightning current ampli-tude, the building height, the soil resistivity and the distance between the solar arrays and the external protection system.
The PV Rooftop system is commonly located in high-rise buildings which makes it very prone to lightning strikes .As far as Malaysia is concerned, no standards exist on lightning protection for PV systems, except for MS 1837:2010 which focuses on the PV installation.
Section 4.5 (Risk Management) of Supplement 5 of the German DIN EN 62305-3 standard describes that a light-ning protection system designed for class of LPS III (LPL III) meets the usual requirements for PV systems.
