Solar Panel And Emp

Your home s solar panels after an emp.

Solar panel and emp.

Please call for the panel brand being used today. Depending on the strength of the electromagnetic pulse emp most solar panels would likely not be affected. If there was an electromagnetic pulse would you know how to protect your solar panels from an emp. If lightning strikes within about 500 feet your panels will be fine although the wiring and circuitry connected to them will often be destroyed.

A solar panel itself may be inherently resistant to emp to some extent. Most solar panels can survive emps caused by natural phenomenon like lightning within a close range. You can expect a similar situation after a nuclear emp. You can also get 50 kv m protection by getting any type of panels you like and use our military grade suppressors along with the emp hardened sol ark.

The bad news is they re usually connected to wires with current flowing through them which makes them susceptible to damage. The solar panels themselves should be fine. If you have a bigger home and have bigger energy demands it will cost even more. We use the latest technology of monocrystalline panels to harden and use with our tested emp hardened systems.

But if damage occurs it is likely due to the wires between the solar panel and most often the solar charge controller. Solar panels generally depend on electronic components and micro circuits though not huge or highly integrated. The good news is solar panels in and of themselves contain very little electronics that could be affected by an emp. The vulnerability of solar panels to an emp wave therefore depends on their internal structure.

Emp hardened solar panels up to 150 kv m paired with emp hardened sol ark systems.
