Currently, with the rapid development of the photovoltaic (PV) industry, detection and monitoring, particularly fault protection, is becoming a very important issue in maintaining the safe and stable operation of PV systems. This chapter comprises three main parts: The first part deals with the presentation of different types of PV systems, including off-grid, on-grid, hybrid PV plants Building Integrated PV, and floating PV systems. The second part presents and discusses the operating, maintenance, protection, and isolation procedures for PV plants, while the third part discusses PV monitoring systems, including an example of a modern PV monitoring system based on the Internet of Things (IoT). Various types of faults, fault detection methods, and fault diagnosis approaches are provided in the same section.
