Abstract
Impact of Stray Voltage on Renewable Energy-based Farm in Pacific Island Country
Highlights
Renewable energy (RE) will be the best choice for achieving sustainable development and ensuring a green, clean environment in the future
The two major contributors to stray voltages are: an unbalanced electrical load of households, industries, and entrepreneurs which leads to a rise in the neutral-toearth voltage (NEV); and the primary neutral voltage resulting from poor grounding [4]
The results provide a clear picture of the impacts of stray voltages using these configurations
Summary
Renewable energy (RE) will be the best choice for achieving sustainable development and ensuring a green, clean environment in the future. Due to their geographic locations, Pacific Islands are very suitable for implementing stand-alone RE sources, especially solar energy which has a lower installation cost than other sources, which will eliminate their dependence on imported fossil fuels for power generation. More formally known as a stray voltage, is relatively small voltage measured between two adjacent points of contact, results when current flows through a neutral conductor It is significant, especially for cattle farms as even a low voltage could have an impact on livestock. The two major contributors to stray voltages are: an unbalanced electrical load (excessive neutral current) of households, industries, and entrepreneurs which leads to a rise in the neutral-toearth voltage (NEV); and the primary neutral voltage resulting from poor grounding [4]
