 stems<br />\nOctober 14-15\, 2026<br />\nHosted by the Indiana Chapter of 
 the International Association of Arson Investigators (IAAI)\, in partnersh

  of Arson Investigators (IAAI)<br />\nIndianapolis Fire Department Trainin
 g Academy<br />\nN Post Road\, Indianapolis\, IN 46226<br />\nInstruction 
 will begin promptly at 8:00 AM\n<div></div>\n<div><br />\n</div>\n<div>The
  Photovoltaic Systems in person training program is intended to give parti
 cipants a fundamental knowledge and understanding of the electrical aspect
 s of photovoltaic systems\, commonly referred to as Solar Power Generation
  Systems.&nbsp\; This program will include a brief history of photovoltaic
  cells and systems and discuss how photovoltaic power contributes to the e
 lectric grid. The program will include a review of the fundamentals of ele
 ctricity and discuss how they are applied within a solar array.&nbsp\; The
  various components of a photovoltaic system will be presented and the int
 eraction of the various components in a cell\, module\, and array will be 
 explained as it relates the power generating function&nbsp\; of the overal
 l photovoltaic system. Safety protocols relevant to the investigation of f
 ires involving photovoltaic systems will be introduced\, and common failur
 es in these systems will also be identified.&nbsp\; Case studies will be u
 tilized as appropriate to illustrate the practical application of the info
 rmation presented in this course.</div>\n<div><br />\n</div>\n<div>At the 
 end of this program\, the participant should be able to:</div>\n<div>&bull
 \; Describe the general use of photovoltaics</div>\n<div>&bull\; Explain s
 olar radiation and its relationship to photovoltaics</div>\n<div>&bull\; E
 xplain basic electricity</div>\n<div>&bull\; Explain sources and diodes</d
 iv>\n<div>&bull\; Review and explain residential and light commercial elec
 trical services</div>\n<div>&bull\; Explain photovoltaic cells\, modules\,
  and arrays\, including the equivalent circuit of a photovoltaic cell</div
 >\n<div>&bull\; Explain shading and its effect on photovoltaic systems</di
 v>\n<div>&bull\; Discuss energy storage in photovoltaic systems</div>\n<di
 v>&bull\; Explain the photovoltaic balance of system components</div>\n<di
 v>&bull\; Discuss the National Electrical Code as it relates to photovolta
 ics</div>\n<div>&bull\; Explain electrical hazards in photovoltaic cells a
 nd systems</div>\n<div>&bull\; Discuss potential failure modes in photovol
 taic cells and systems.</div>\n<div>&bull\; Discuss standards organization
 s that generate standards applicable to photovoltaics</div>\n<div><br />\n
