[0002] In a photovoltaic (PV) power generation system, a combiner box is a wiring device that ensures the orderly connection of PV modules and provides current collection functionality. It facilitates circuit disconnection during maintenance and inspection of the PV system. A certain number of identical PV cells can be connected in series to form PV strings, and then several PV strings can be connected in parallel to the combiner box. After current collection within the combiner box, it is connected to a controller, DC distribution cabinet, PV inverter, and AC distribution cabinet, forming a complete PV power generation system that can be connected to the grid.
