Does PVSTOP make solar PV systems electrically safe?

Yes, PVSTOP is the only accredited light blocking agent designed to spray on to solar panels like a ‘liquid blanket’, blocking the light and ‘switching off’ the solar panels in seconds.  PVSTOP is effective on a range of risks relating to solar PV systems including,

  • PV system failure (panel damage, component failure, faulty interconnects and damaged cabling)
  • PV system maintenance (in many countries up to 20% of solar PV systems have been found to be dangerous and/or sub-standard)
  • Property fire (where the solar PV system is the ignition source of the fire)
  • Property fire (where the solar PV system becomes indirectly involved due to an external ignition source)
  • Hazard containment (solar panels are toxic when burning)
  • Extreme weather events (floods, wildfires, hailstorms)
