The performance PV standards described in this article, namely IEC 61215 (Ed. 2 – 2005) and IEC 61646 (Ed.2 – 2008), set specific test sequences, conditions and requirements for the design qualification of a PV module.
One effective method is to conduct a during-production inspection. This quality check thoroughly inspects each panel’s materials, manufacturing process, and performance characteristics to ensure they meet the required standards. Ensuring the quality of solar panels during production inspection is important for multiple reasons:
e essential information which can be used efectively to troubleshoot any problems arising within the system. Sampling for testing of PV modules comprises the procedures involved to select a part of PV modules from the entire solar PV plant for inspection and it should a
There are currently 169 published IEC standards by TC-82 related to photovoltaic technology, and work is in progress for 69 more (new ones or revisions). This set of standards is the most broadly used by the scientific community and technicians in research centres and companies.
