INSPEÇÃO E MANUTENÇÃO DAS ESTRUTURAS DE FIXAÇÃO DE MÓDULOS FOTOVOLTAICOS

Abstract

The present work aims to accompany the process of implantation of inspection and maintenance in photovoltaic plants, aiming at the elimination of the problem that has become recurrent due to faults and problems of assembly in the structure. The objective is explored through the elaboration of a theoretical reference where it describes and conceptualizes the main types of maintenance and components of the photovoltaic system, describing its characteristics and the great importance for the proper functioning of the equipment. The guarantee of maintenance and inspection of the module's fixing structures needs to seek to reduce rework and waste time. For the implementation, the operational failures caused were also taken into account, since they mechanically overload the equipment, causing unscheduled maintenance and losses for the company. From a financial point of view, rework is increasing repetitive labor among other expenses; a comparison was made between the expenses related to the inspections and unscheduled maintenance of the equipment in the previous year, and the expenses generated with the implementation of the maintenance system. Preventive is very recent, the results are in the process of analysis and possibly will be satisfactory. After installing the correct type of maintenance, fewer failures and rework began to appear, improvements were noticeable, raising their reliability and availability rates.
