Abstract
A solar photovoltaic system inspection apparatus sequentially applies AC inspection signals to a positive electrode and a negative electrode of a solar cell string, and is provided with: an impedance calculation unit configured to measure an indicator value when the signal is applied to the positive electrode, and an indicator value when the signal is applied to the negative electrode, the indicator values varying depending on the number of solar cell modules from the terminal to which the inspection signal was applied to a failure position; and a control unit configured to obtain the failure position based on the ratio of the indicator value measured when the inspection signal was applied to the positive electrode, to the indicator value measured when the inspection signal was applied to the negative electrode.
