1.0 INTRODUCTION
Now a days the whole world is suffering from one or the other energy crisis. Electrical energy crisis is one of the major crisis.
The pa engineering college uses a load of approximate 31,775Kwh per month for HT installation. The amount that is being paid
is around 2,72,542 Rs/month .which is a huge amount being paid. Hence the idea of installing the solar panels for the PA college
to overcome the huge payment very month, to utilize the renewable energy, sunlight which is very bright may be because of
global warming and vacant space on the roof as a means of money making.

3.0 PROPOSED SITE DETAILS
The Proposed location for 180KW GRID INTERACTYIVE roof MOUNTED SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER PLANT
having
its location as, Latitude: 12° 51’30” N, Longitude: 74°49’47”E. The photograph of the location is enclosed as attachment.
4.0 TECHNICAL DETAILS OF THE SPV POWER PLANT
4.1 DESCRIPTION OF MAIN PLANT EQUIPMENT
Grid connected solar power plant comprising main equipment and components as listed below:
> Solar PV Modules > Central inverters > String boxes > Module mounting structure > Cable & connectors
4.1.1 Solar PV MODULES:
The system will be based on high quality mono-crystalline modules mounted on fixed steel constructions. The proposed
solution will generate power during daytime only and will not include any power storage.
A PV Array is made up of PV modules, which are environmentally - sealed collections of PV - cells the devices that convert
sunlight to electricity. Mono – crystalline solar module of 240Wp is being used in the proposed Project. The tech spec and IEC
certificate of the said modules are attached.
4.1.2 CENTRAL INVERTERS:
The grid connected inverter range is state-of-the-art equipment with
robust control platform, high efficiency, high availability, low maintenance
and advance features built with quality components. The product is available
in range of 100kW, 500kW, 630 KW & MW solutions in three phase configurations.
Optimized efficiency factor, higher availability (by proven long life components),
the latest control procedure are key features. 98.3% max. efficiency, high standards
features innovative ventilation system that prevents unwanted heating and dust accumulation . GAMESA Solar Inverter

4.1.3 STRING BOXES:-
String boxes minimize the number of DC cables that enter the central inverter in medium
and high power photovoltaic installations by grouping together different chains of
PV panels. These string boxes are typically enclosed in IP 65 rated polycarbonate housing.
Robustness: Boxes of the highest standard of quality, fully integrated cabling,
with strong electrical protection and casings that resist the toughest of outdoor
conditions; with an ingress protection of IP65.
Flexibility: Standard boxes of 16, 24 and 32 strings with multiple options such
as double output terminals of up to 240 mm2.
String Box
4.1.4 MODULE MOUNTING SYSTEM:-
The module mounting structure is designed for holding suitable
number of modules. The frames and leg assembles of the array
structure is made of Hot Dip Galvanized materials with suitable
Channel, nuts, bolts and any other section conforming to the
Solar PV system to meet the design criteria. For this project, we‘ll use the best structure
available in India, designed to provide maximum durability and
longevity. Module Mounting System –
Hot Dip Galvanized
4.1.5 CABLES AND CONNECTORS:-
Cables will be extremely robust and resist high mechanical load and abrasion. High temperature resistance and excellent
weatherproofing characteristics provide a long service life to the cables used. The connectors with high current capacity and easy
mode of assembly are to be used for the connections of the power plant cables.
5.0 OPERATIONS & WARRANTY
The system performance can be improved as much as, by cleaning the dirt on the panels, tightening loose connections and proper
maintenance in inverers.
