Solar panels play a significant role in the renewable energy sector. However, performance monitoring of photovoltaic (PV) panels is challenging in PV systems. Moreover, solar panel testing equipment is not available everywhere and is an expensive device. So, this paper presents a method for measuring and monitoring the PV panel parameters based on a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) with a simple design. Terminal voltage, load current, the power dissipated, temperature, and intensity of light were measured and displayed both locally on the digital display unit of the PLC and remotely on a smartphone. The proposed system has good stability, reliability, and broad application prospects.

Panele słoneczne odgrywają znaczącą rolę w sektorze energii odnawialnej. Jednak monitorowanie wydajności paneli fotowoltaicznych (PV) jest wyzwaniem w systemach PV. Co więcej, sprzęt do testowania paneli słonecznych nie jest dostępny wszędzie i jest drogim urządzeniem. W tym artykule przedstawiono metodę pomiaru i monitorowania parametrów panelu fotowoltaicznego opartą na programowalnym sterowniku logicznym (PLC) o prostej konstrukcji. Napięcie końcowe, prąd obciążenia, rozpraszana moc, temperatura i natężenie światła były mierzone i wyświetlane zarówno lokalnie na cyfrowym wyświetlaczu PLC, jak i zdalnie na smartfonie. Proponowany system ma dobrą stabilność, niezawodność i szerokie perspektywy zastosowań.
