It is focused on the detection and parametric isolation of fault symptoms through the analysis of the Voc-Isc curves. The method performs early, systematic, online, automatic, permanent predictive supervision, and diagnosis of a high sampling frequency. It is based on the supervision of predictive electrical parameters easily accessible by the design of its architecture, whose detection and isolation precedes with an adequate margin of maneuver, to be able to alert and stop by means of automatic disconnection the degradation phenomenon and its cumulative effect causing the development of a future irrecoverable failure. Its architecture design is scalable and integrable in conventional photovoltaic installations. It emphasizes the use of low-cost technology such as the ESP8266 module, ASC712-5A, and FZ0430 sensors and relay modules. The method is based on data acquisition with the ESP8266 module, which is sent over the internet to the computer where a SCADA system (iFIX V6.5) is installed, using the Modbus TCP\/IP and OPC communication protocols. Detection thresholds are initially obtained experimentally by applying inductive shading methods on specific solar panels.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s22010332","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,9]],"date-time":"2022-01-09T23:08:26Z","timestamp":1641769706000},"page":"332","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["Solar Panels String Predictive and Parametric Fault Diagnosis Using Low-Cost Sensors"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Emilio","family":"Garc\u00eda","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Autom\u00e1tica e Inform\u00e1tica Industrial, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Camino de Vera, s\/n, 46022 Valencia, Spain"}]},{"given":"Neisser","family":"Ponluisa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Autom\u00e1tica e Inform\u00e1tica Industrial, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Camino de Vera, s\/n, 46022 Valencia, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0578-4716","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eduardo","family":"Quiles","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Autom\u00e1tica e Inform\u00e1tica Industrial, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Camino de Vera, s\/n, 46022 Valencia, Spain"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4746-2101","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ranko","family":"Zotovic-Stanisic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Autom\u00e1tica e Inform\u00e1tica Industrial, Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Camino de Vera, s\/n, 46022 Valencia, Spain"}]},{"given":"Santiago C.","family":"Guti\u00e9rrez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto de Dise\u00f1o y Fabricaci\u00f3n (IDF), Universitat Polit\u00e8cnica de Val\u00e8ncia, Camino de Vera, s\/n, 46022 Valencia, Spain"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"SolarPower Europe (2019).
