The international standards for photovoltaic (PV) module safety qualification, IEC 61730 series (61730-1 and 61730-2), were recently updated to reflect changes in PV module technologies.

9,406 applications out of a total of 9,586 approved applications were for solar PV alone, with 95% (8,989 applications) coming from applications for small installations of <72 the number of
The changeover to the 2021 version of the IEC 61215 Standards series will give solar panel owners peace of mind knowing that their PV modules meet the latest international safety, performance, and durability
To adjust to innovation development of science and technology in the renewable energy sector, and ensuring the safety, quality and consumer protection of user equipment Photovoltaic (PV)
UL 61730, a more recent addition to solar panel testing and certifications, combines the testing procedures and standards of UL 1703 with IEC 61730, allowing for complete international
IEC 61646: Thin-film terrestrial photovoltaic (PV) modules – Design qualification and type approval: This standard is dedicated to thin-film PV modules, setting the criteria for
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard. Tests to determine the performance of stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) systems and for verifying PV system design are presented in this recommended practice. These tests apply only to complete systems with a defined load.
Tests to determine the performance of stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) systems and for verifying PV system design are presented in this recommended practice. These tests apply only to complete systems with a defined load. The methodology includes testing the system outdoors in prevailing conditions and indoors under simulated conditions.
Introduction. There have been changes throughout the entire 2023 NEC that may affect the installation of photovoltaic (PV) systems.
For PV modules to remain CEC approved after 30th September 2024, a new application with IEC 61215:2021 (and IEC 61730:2016) must be submitted. For enhanced listings requests submitted with an PV Module application, the assessment of the enhanced listings request will remain free of charge.
5.5.4 Where mounting systems are certified or listed using a named PV module or modules then only those modules shall be used. The system is compliant with current Building Regulations for weather-tightness, fire and wind resistance.
In addition, he drew attention to notable code development issues affecting various configurations of PV systems, including rooftop and ground-mount systems, and shared several resources for more information. The 2024 edition of the IBC and IRC, due to be published later this year, will include ASCE 7-22 as a referenced standard.
