–Increased risk of water leakage and stagnant water
For solar systems without solar energy drain clip, rainwater may enter underneath the system through the gaps between the photovoltaic panels, causing water accumulation or even leakage.
Not only can this damage the roof structure, it can also corrode the PV mounts and cable connections.
–Shorten system life
Moisture remaining in the gaps or around key components of the photovoltaic system for a long time can easily cause corrosion, short circuits in the electrical system and other problems, leading to equipment damage and system failure, thereby shortening the service life of the entire solar system.
–Increased maintenance costs
Due to the presence of water leakage and stagnant water problems, the frequency of system maintenance will increase significantly. Repairs may include replacing damaged electrical components, addressing roof leaks or repairing corroded brackets beneath photovoltaic panels, adding to long-term maintenance costs.
–Affects power generation performance
The accumulation of rainwater leads to the accumulation of dirt. Over time, the dirt on the surface of photovoltaic panels may increase, reducing the transmittance of light, thereby affecting the power generation efficiency of solar cells.
This shows the importance of solar energy drain clip in the entire installation system.
