6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic inverter certification process]
Are photovoltaic inverters able to meet der requirements?
Initial indications show that, in general, photovoltaic (PV) inverters are able to fulfil both the static and the dynamic requirements. Besides the new requirements of the guideline, an extensive certification process for DER units and plants has also been introduced.
Do photovoltaic modules need a certification test protocol?
A certification test protocol that delivers an accurate and credible estimate of component and system performance is needed. Even with current component qualification information, photovoltaic module performance data must be modified to account for actual conditions.
What certifications do we offer for PV modules?
At our ISO 17025 accredited laboratories around the globe, we test and certify PV modules according to national and international standards, including IEC 61215 and IEC 61730. Besides this we offer testing under special as well as more severe conditions, performance characterization and energy yield testing, just to name a few.
What is an inverter certification test?
The inverter certification tests must also provide data to show maximum power tracking effectiveness, efficiency variations associated with power line voltage, environmental effects, and losses that occur at night and during protective shutdowns.
What is a photovoltaic inverter test?
Tests cover the inverter operation, performance and safety, the photovoltaic array installation, the system operation and applicable instrumentation. The tests described are suitable for inverter and/or system acceptance purposes or can be performed at any time for troubleshooting or to evaluate inverter/system performance and operation.
