Werner Wirth GmbH
Connector solutions for photovoltaic roof tiles
Werner Wirth GmbH provides customised connection systems for innovative photovoltaic roof tiles. The connection solutions address common weaknesses during system installation, aiming to reduce complexity, vulnerability to errors, and assembly time in the installation of photovoltaic roof tiles.
While developing this photovoltaic solution, Werner Wirth GmbH focused on three key points: assembly, the electrical performance of the cable harness, and production friendliness, including customisation options.
The installation of photovoltaic roof tiles is renowned for its complexity and high susceptibility to errors, with the interdependence of various trades further complicating the installation challenge. The connector solution from the Hamburg-based family company tackles these challenges with an innovative approach: the introduction of a Plug-and-Play system that facilitates a simple, adaptable, efficient and secure assembly.
The engineers at Werner Wirth GmbH achieved a significant enhancement in the electrical performance of the cable harness by optimizing resistance at numerous connection points. This is made possible through a special connection technology that enables a more efficient energy transfer from the solar cell to the socket. The uniform protection of each tile and the entire system also increases overall safety.
Additionally, the system allows for individual customisations, such as monitoring each roof tile for temperature and performance. With this innovation, Werner Wirth GmbH makes a significant contribution to simplifying and enhancing efficiency in the field of photovoltaic connection technology.
