Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation | | German term or phrase: Potential gegenüber Erde | The text below is an extract from a text about potential induced degradation in solar generators. Does "Potential gegenüber Erde" simply have the same meaning as "Erdpotential" and, if so, would the translation "earth potential" suffice?
Der Solargenerator weist bereits bei offenen Plus- und Minusverbindungen ein Potential gegenüber Erde auf.
The solar generator already has earth potential with open positive and negative connections.
Many thanks in advance! |
