Zusammenfassung:A no-contact switch is provided that is configured to change the state of a power converter in a photovoltaic system. The no-contact switch has a mechanical section that is movable from a first position to a second position and which may include a rotary dial or a sliding tab. The mechanical section may be mounted to and penetrate an enclosure. Each of the first and second positions may please a different area of the tab or dial in proximity to a sensor. The sensor may be placed in an interior of the enclosure, and may be configured to sense the change of position of the mechanical section. A controller may be configured to read the signal that the sensor outputs and, according to the signal, determine an electrical state of the power converter and/or change the state.
