Abstract :
The experimental and qualitative analysis of transient start-up and shut-down processes is given. It is reported that during a faulty transient process the photovoltaic (PV) array current maybe 10-15 times higher than the PV array short-circuit current. Possible explanations of the phenomenon observed are discussed
