Abstract: The present invention provides an intelligent IoT-based apparatus for monitoring and diagnosing faults in solar photovoltaic panels. The apparatus comprises sensing units for acquiring electrical, thermal, environmental, and operational parameters, a signal conditioning and data acquisition unit, a controller, a memory unit, an intelligent diagnostic engine, and an IoT communication unit. The controller processes the acquired parameters and derives photovoltaic operating characteristics, while the intelligent diagnostic engine correlates real-time measurements with environmental conditions and historical operating information to identify abnormal operating behavior. The diagnostic engine determines a probable fault condition and corresponding severity or diagnostic status. The IoT communication unit transmits operating and diagnostic information to a remote monitoring interface for real-time visualization and alerts. The apparatus facilitates continuous panel-level or string-level monitoring, early fault identification, remote diagnosis, performance tracking, and maintenance planning for photovoltaic installations.
