Photovoltaic (PV) stand-alone systems - Design verification
Verifies system design and performance of stand-alone photovoltaic systems. The performance test consists of a check of the functionality, the autonomy and ability to recover after periods of low state-of-charge of the battery, and hence gives reasonable assurance that the system will not fail prematurely. The testing conditions are intended to represent the majority of climatic zones for which these systems are designed.

Systèmes photovoltaïques (PV) autonomes - Vérification de la conception
Vérifie la conception du système et les performances des systèmes photovoltaïques autonomes. L'essai de performance consiste en une vérification de la fonctionnalité, de l'autonomie et de l'aptitude à récupérer après des périodes de faible état de charge de la batterie. Les conditions d'essai sont prévues pour représenter la majorité des zones climatiques pour lesquelles ces systèmes sont conçus.

DESIGN VERIFICATION
FOREWORD 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. International Standard IEC 62124 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 82: Solar
photovoltaic energy systems. The text of this standard is based on the following documents: FDIS Report on voting 82/355/FDIS 82/364/RVD
