Darryl:

You make an important and valid point. This is why I am interested in Aurora Inverters. They use ungrounded PV arrays. Here is a link to the manual. http://www.power-one.com/resources/products/appnote/AlternativeEnergy/manual4.2us.pdf Check out section 2.4.2. Here is the manufacturer's web site: http://www.power-one.com/renewable-energy/grid-tie-solar-inverters.php

Alternatively, we need the device I invented, only to find someone beat me to it: http://www.google.com/patents?id=wXHIAAAAEBAJ&pg=PA2&dq=solar+ground+fault+protection&source=gbs_selected_pages&cad=2#v=onepage&q=&f=false

Remember target had two fires. one caused by the conduit cutting insulation and the other by the ground current passing through small module ground leads. Had the grounded conductor not been grounded this other fire would not have happened. We need to move to ungrounded systems.
