Experimental data of photovoltaic cable submersion tests

  • 1. University of Évora

Description

Experimental data tables regarding the study of submersion of photovoltaic cables (with two different insulation materials) in freshwater and artificial seawater. Subjected to real life conditions, replicating when FPV systems are located in reservoirs or in the marine environment. Electrical insulation tests were carried out weekly to assess possible cable degradation, the physical-chemical characteristics of the water were also periodically monitored, complemented by analysis to detect traces of copper and microplastics in the water.
