Solar Earthing Kit – ARK Make by DFMHUB
Solar Earthing Kit – ARK Make by DFMHUB is an engineered grounding
solution designed for rooftop, ground-mounted, and utility-scale solar power
plants across India. Manufactured by DFMHUB, the kit is developed to meet
Indian soil, climatic, and electrical safety requirements while complying with
national and international standards.
What Is a Solar Earthing Kit?
A solar earthing kit is a complete grounding system used to
safely dissipate fault currents, lightning surges, and leakage currents from
solar PV modules, inverter structures, and balance-of-system components into
the earth.
Why Earthing Is Critical for Solar Power Plants
- Protects PV modules and inverters from surge damage
- Reduces fire and electric shock hazards
- Ensures personnel safety
- Maintains low earth resistance throughout plant life
- Mandatory for electrical inspections and statutory approvals
ARK Make Solar Earthing Kit – Engineered by DFMHUB
ARK Make solar earthing kits are designed and manufactured by DFMHUB using
proven materials and field-tested designs. Each kit is engineered for
long-term stability, low earth resistance,
and minimal maintenance across the project lifecycle.
