Solutions to common problems of solar street lights

Now, when night falls, the solar street lights on both sides of the street light up. Solar street lights have the advantages of energy saving, environmental protection, saving manpower and material resources, and are now widely used in people’s lives. However, in the use of solar street lights, there will be more or less some problems, which are specifically manifested in the following 6 aspects:

1. What should I do if the solar street light does not light up?

This is undoubtedly a question that customers want to ask. If this problem really occurs, the first thing we have to do is to check whether the indicator light of the battery is on. If it is not on, it may be that the connection line between the controller and the battery has fallen off. At this time, we have to ask a professional to connect the wires. If the wiring is normal, then we have to check whether the voltage of the battery is normal. If not, then we have to repair the controller.

2. Is the solar street light panel fragile?

The solar panels are very strong, usually made of very strong tempered glass panels. Regular manufacturers will test the solar panels against hail, so there will be no problems with the panels of this type of solar street light, even if it is a rainstorm or hail, it has a certain ability to resist.

3. How much electricity can solar street lights generate?

Different configurations will naturally result in different amounts of electricity and lighting time. The configuration of solar street lights is generally determined by the local environment. Normally, when choosing solar street lights, the parameters of solar street lights will be configured according to the actual local conditions.

4. Can solar street lights be installed in shaded places?

Solar panels must absorb enough sunlight to be converted into electrical energy. If solar panels are installed in shaded places, the absorbed sunlight will be relatively less, and the output of the battery will also be relatively less. Generally, solar street lights should not be installed in shaded places, but should be avoided in places with shelters, because they are not afraid of wind and sun, and can absorb sunlight all day, which is good for the operation of solar street lights.

5. Should the cleaning panels of solar street lights be cleaned frequently?

The solar panels of solar street lights cannot accumulate dust for a long time, because this is not conducive to the solar panels absorbing sunlight. If the panels have a shaded side, the battery string may cause a short circuit. However, in general, the solar panels of solar street lights do not need to be cleaned frequently, because the dust on the solar panel will be washed away when it rains. If it does not rain for a long time, you should occasionally clean the solar panels.

6. Must the photovoltaic components of solar street lights face south?

We all know that solar street lights absorb sunlight through panels and convert it into electrical energy and store it in batteries. At night, the batteries discharge the lamp heads to light up the solar street lights. The direction of the photovoltaic component determines how much sunlight the solar panel can absorb and how much electrical energy it can convert. If the direction is wrong, less sunlight will be absorbed, and the light may not light up for a long time or not light up at all.

The photovoltaic cells of solar street lights generally face south, so that the photovoltaic components can absorb more and more even light radiation. But there is no need to worry too much, because most manufacturers will design a good tilt angle for solar panels based on the sunlight conditions in the area.
