Since the Industrial Revolution, human society has developed rapidly and the demand for energy has also increased day by day. In today's world, the main source of energy is still fossil energy such as coal, oil, and natural gas, but the reserves of fossil energy are limited, and it will produce pollution and greenhouse gases during use. In the current context of global energy transformation, photovoltaic power generation, as a clean and renewable energy form, has received widespread attention and application.
[0004] However, with the continuous expansion of the scale of photovoltaic systems, the safety, stability and efficiency of the systems have become urgent issues to be addressed. In particular, in photovoltaic power generation systems, various unpredictable faults and emergencies may have a negative impact on the normal operation of the system. The existing shut-off and power optimizer solutions have the problems of single functions and imperfections. On the one hand, traditional photovoltaic optimizers lack a remote rapid shutdown mechanism in emergency situations, which makes it difficult to cut off the system power supply in time in emergency situations such as fires, thereby increasing the risk of the system. On the other hand, traditional photovoltaic optimizers have low power optimization efficiency and lack of troubleshooting mechanism. Therefore, it is particularly urgent to conduct detailed and comprehensive monitoring and optimization of photovoltaic systems. Utility Model Content

[0012] Furthermore, a bypass diode is electrically connected to the left side of the back side of the slave circuit board.
[0013] Furthermore, two wireless antennas are rotatably connected to the back of the host chassis.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0015] 1. This photovoltaic device with fire monitoring and automatic shutdown functions innovatively integrates the fault judgment function into the optimizer, and uses the voltage and current sampling function of the optimizer to make fault judgments, which indirectly reduces the cost of the optimizer. It has a fast shutdown function, which can disconnect components in time when a fire occurs, reducing the difficulty of fire fighting.

On this basis, this design innovatively adds real-time fault judgment and fast shutdown functions. Compared with other photovoltaic grid-connected power generation system structures, the output end series structure can make the input voltage of the optimizer close to the output voltage, thereby improving the efficiency of the optimizer while reducing costs.
