Abstract
A failure detecting method for a solar power generation system having plural solar cell strings in each of which plural solar cell modules are connected to each other in series. Specifically, by comparing the current value of each of the solar cell modules or strings with the average current value per one module or string, calculated from the total current value of the entire solar cell modules or strings, one or more failure candidates can be detected with high precision.
