Neural Network-Based Classification of String-Level IV Curves From Physically-Induced Failures of Photovoltaic Modules

Accurate diagnosis of failures is critical for meeting photovoltaic (PV) performance objectives and avoiding safety concerns. This analysis focuses on the classification of field-collected string-level current-voltage (IV) curves representing baseline, partial soiling, and cracked failure modes. Spe...
