An I–V characteristic reconstruction-based partial shading diagnosis and quantitative evaluation for photovoltaic strings
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The partial shading condition (PSC) is the most common abnormality occurred in photovoltaic (PV) systems. Accurate quantitative evaluation of the shaded area and the severity of the shading is of potential importance in optimizing the maintenance strategy for PV systems. In this paper, we propose a PSC diagnosis and quantitative evaluation method by analyzing the measured string current–voltage (I–V) characteristic obtained from the PV inverter with the I–V scanning function, which includes pre-diagnosis of the system abnormality based on the operational power deviation, the diagnosis of PSCs based on the derivatives characteristics of the PV string, and the quantitative evaluation based on the I–V characteristic reconstruction. The quantitative evaluation of PSCs is the main focus in this paper, where the I–V characteristics of the unshaded PV modules in the partially shaded PV string are reconstructed according to different mismatch levels, respectively. The number of shaded PV modules and the corresponding severity of the partial shadings are estimated according to the reconstructed I–V characteristics. The simulation and experimental results verify that both the proposed diagnosis and quantitative evaluation method is effective with decent accuracy, especially for severe mismatch conditions. Experimental results show that the maximal mean absolute error of the quantified shaded area and quantified shaded rate are approximately 1.4446 units of 1/3 PV modules and 0.026, respectively.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
