Abstract

A photovoltaic power generation system and a method and a device for detecting an earth fault of a photovoltaic string. The controller obtains a terminal voltage of each photovoltaic string before voltage disturbance, where the terminal voltage is a voltage to earth of a positive electrode or negative electrode of the photovoltaic string; performs voltage disturbance on each photovoltaic string and obtains a terminal voltage of each photovoltaic string after the voltage disturbance; determines a photovoltaic string with an earth fault based on the terminal voltage of each photovoltaic string before and after the voltage disturbance; obtains a photovoltaic panel with an earth fault by using the terminal voltage and an output voltage of the photovoltaic string before the voltage disturbance, or obtains a photovoltaic panel with an earth fault by using the terminal voltage and an output voltage of the photovoltaic string after the voltage disturbance.
