Photovoltaic system failure and alerting

A device comprising:

• at least one hardware processor;
• a user interface;
• and
• a storage medium comprising instructions stored thereon, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one hardware processor, cause the device to:
• receive a fault identification associated with a power generation system, wherein the fault identification comprises a timestamp and a fault type;
• retrieve a mapping of faults and retrieve a set of fault processing rules;
• calculate an impact value based on the fault identification and the mapping;
• determine, using the set of fault processing rules, a notification based on the fault identification and the impact value;
• and
• present, using the user interface, the notification,
• wherein the fault identification further comprises an electrical parameter value,
• wherein the mapping comprises a formula,
• wherein the formula comprises an electrical parameter term, a temporal term, and a root cause term,
• wherein the electrical parameter term and the temporal term are based on the fault identification, and
• wherein the root cause term is based on one or more root cause impact values calculated according to at least one root cause fault identifications determined from:
• the mapping, or
• the fault identification.

A power device comprising a controller circuit configured to:

• receive a fault identification associated with a power generation system, wherein the fault identification comprises a timestamp and a fault type;
• retrieve a mapping of faults and retrieve a set of fault processing rules;
• calculate an impact value based on the fault identification and the mapping;
• determine, using the set of fault processing rules, a notification based on the fault identification and the impact value;
• and
• present, using a user interface, the notification,
• wherein the fault identification further comprises an electrical parameter value,
• wherein the mapping comprises a formula,
• wherein the formula comprises an electrical parameter term, a temporal term, and a root cause term,
• wherein the electrical parameter term and the temporal term are based on the fault identification, and
• wherein the root cause term is based on one or more root cause impact values calculated according to at least one root cause fault identification determined from:
• the mapping, or
• the fault identification.
