The purpose of this Standard for hotovoltaic (PV) modulesp and PV inverters is to establish product sustainability performance criteria and corporate performance metrics that exemplify
Solar Inverter Installation Guide: Key Steps and Considerations. The solar inverter installation guide provides essential information on the key steps and considerations for a successful installation. By following these
The Solar America Board of Codes and standards (ABCs) was established in the year 2008 to identify and rectify the current issues in the development of codes and standards

There are numerous national and international bodies that set standards for photovoltaics. There are standards for nearly every stage of the PV life cycle, including materials and processes used in the production of PV panels, testing methodologies, performance standards, and design and installation guidelines.
The Sustainability Standard for photovoltaic modules and inverters is a set of product sustainability performance criteria and corporate performance metrics that exemplify sustainability leadership in the market.
Virtually all domestic PV installations will fall under the scope of Part P. Part P requires the relevant Building Control department to be notified and approve the work. There are two routes to comply with the requirements of Part P: Notify the relevant Building Control department before starting the work.
While many UK standards apply in general terms, at the time of writing there is still relatively little which specifically relates to a PV installation. However, there are two documents which specifically relate to the installation of these systems that are of particular relevance:
Although the RERH specification does not set a minimum array area requirement, builders should minimally specify an area of 50 square feet in order to operate the smallest grid-tied solar PV inverters on the market.
In future it is expected that all PV products will increasingly be covered by International standard IEC61730: 2004 ‘Photovoltaic (PV) module safety qualification’.
