Over 2,500 people were evacuated from Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre after a fire broke out in the roof, caused by an electrical fault that ignited around 90 solar panels.
In this video, we explore the differences between two main types of solar architectures available in Australia: DC (Direct Current) systems and AC (Alternating Current) systems, such as those using microinverters. The fire at Sydney Olympic Park highlights the dangers associated with DC systems. We'll explain why AC systems with microinverters are a safer choice and how they can prevent such incidents.
🔥 Key Points:
- Fire Incident: Electrical fault and fire at Sydney Olympic Park.
- Solar Architectures: Differences between DC systems and AC systems with microinverters.
- Safety Benefits: How microinverters prevent fires and enhance safety for firefighters.
- Real-World Implications: Why Penrith Solar Centre advocates for AC systems and refuses to install DC string inverters.
See the footage, understand the risks, and learn how to make safer choices for your solar installations. Don't miss this essential information that could protect your home or business from similar hazards.
