SCADA

SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition): SCADA in a solar power plant is a centralized system used to monitor, control, and analyze the performance of the entire plant in real-time. It collects data from various equipment like inverters, transformers, string combiner boxes, and weather sensors, allowing operators to track energy production, identify faults, and optimize performance. SCADA enhances efficiency, ensures timely maintenance, and helps in remotely managing the solar plant from a control room or mobile interface.
