Solar photovoltaic system fault category.

Fault type	Fault condition (short circuit set in faulted solar cell)
SCF1	There is no fault in the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
SCF2	One solar cell fault occurs in any series branch of the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
SCF3	Two solar cell faults occur in any series branch of the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
SCF4	Three solar cell faults occur in any series branch of the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
SCF5	One solar cell fault occurs in each series branch of the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
SCF6	Two solar cell faults occur in each series branch of the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
SCF7	One solar cell fault occurs in one series branch and two solar cell faults occur in the other branch of the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
SCF8	One solar cell fault occurs in one series branch and four solar cell faults occur in the other branch of the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
SCF9	Two solar cell faults occur in one series branch and three solar cell faults occur in the other branch of the two-series branch solar photovoltaic system.
