>>> DC isolators that account for 50% of fires
That's interesting and I think the guys at eFixx are suggesting that they should not be fitted - but the Foa guidance that @LnP pointed to says 'DC isolators should be available for firefghters'. Guess we're still figuring this out.

I think sensors (thernistor strings or whatever) are an interesting approach.
Also, some kind of retardant membrane (fibreglass cloth comes to mind) would be helpful as ling at it doesn't interfere with whatever membranes are there.
Gus's maintenance point is a good one, but I guess if a panel fails in the middle of a big array, it's always going to be hard to sort out.
