Abstract
A solar power generation system provides safety for personnel working on or around the system. The solar power generation system includes multiple solar panels, multiple cut-off devices separate from the plurality of solar panels and a master control unit. The cut-off devices are coupled in series with corresponding sub-groups of the plurality of solar panels and connect and disconnect outputs of the corresponding sub-groups from a solar power output chain or bus. The master control unit has at least one power supply output coupled to the plurality of cut-off devices, and a power supply input that receives a power source independent of an output of the plurality of solar panels. The cut-off devices are deactivated to open-circuit a connection of the corresponding sub-group when the power source is removed from the power supply input.
