EN IEC 62109-3:2022

Safety of power converters for use in photovoltaic power systems - Part 3: Particular requirements for electronic devices in combination with photovoltaic elements

IEC 62109-3:2020 covers the particular safety requirements for electronic elements that are mechanically and/or electrically incorporated with photovoltaic (PV) modules or systems. Mechanically and/or electrically incorporated means that the whole combination of electronic device with the photovoltaic element is sold as one product. Nevertheless, tests provided in this document may also be used to evaluate compatibility of PV modules and electronic devices that are sold separately and are intended to be installed close to each other. The purpose of the requirements of this document is to provide additional safety-related testing requirements for the following types of integrated electronics, collectively referred to as module integrated equipment (MIE): a) Type A MIE where the PV element can be evaluated as a PV module according to IEC 61730-1 and IEC 61730‑2 independently from the electronic element; b) Type B MIE where the PV element cannot be evaluated as a PV module according to IEC 61730-1 and IEC 61730-2 independently from the electronic element.

Sicherheit von Leistungsumrichtern zur Anwendung in photovoltaischen Energiesystemen - Teil 3: Besondere Anforderungen an elektronische Geräte in Kombination mit Photovoltaikelementen

Sécurité des convertisseurs de puissance utilisés dans les systèmes photovoltaïques - Partie 3: Exigences particulières pour les dispositifs électroniques combinés aux éléments photovoltaïques

l’IEC 62109-3:2020 couvre les exigences particulières de sécurité concernant les éléments électroniques intégrés de manière mécanique et/ou électrique à des modules ou systèmes photovoltaïques (PV). “Intégrés de manière mécanique et/ou électrique” signifie que l’intégralité de la combinaison de l’appareil électronique et de l’élément photovoltaïque est vendue comme un seul et même produit. Cependant, les essais indiqués dans le présent document peuvent également être utilisés pour évaluer la compatibilité des modules PV et des appareils électroniques vendus séparément et destinés à être installés à proximité les uns des autres. Les exigences de la présente partie de l’IEC 62109 ont pour objet de fournir des exigences supplémentaires d’essai liées à la sécurité pour les types suivants d’électroniques intégrées, communément appelées “électroniques intégrées aux modules” (MIE-module integrated equipment): a) La MIE de type A, dans laquelle l’élément PV peut être évalué comme un module PV conforme à l’IEC 61730-1 et à l’IEC 61730-2, quel que soit l’élément électronique; b) La MIE de type B, dans laquelle l’élément PV ne peut pas être évalué comme un module PV conforme à l’IEC 61730-1 et à l’IEC 61730-2, quel que soit l’élément électronique.

Varnost močnostnih pretvornikov, ki se uporabljajo v fotonapetostnih sistemih - 3. del: Posebne zahteve za elektronske naprave v kombinaciji s fotonapetostnimi elementi

Standard IEC 62109-3:2020 zajema posebne varnostne zahteve za elektronske elemente, ki so mehansko in/ali električno povezani s fotonapetostnimi (PV) moduli ali sistemi.
Mehanska in/ali električna povezava pomeni, da se celotna kombinacija elektronske naprave s fotonapetostnim elementom prodaja kot en izdelek. Vseeno pa je mogoče preskuse, navedene v tem dokumentu, uporabiti tudi za oceno združljivosti fotonapetostnih modulov in elektronskih naprav, ki se jih prodaja ločeno in so nameščeni blizu en drugega.
Namen zahtev iz tega dokumenta je določiti dodatne preskusne zahteve glede varnosti za naslednje vrste vgrajene elektronike, ki jih skupno imenujemo oprema z vgrajenim modulom (MIE):
a) Oprema z vgrajenim modulom tipa A, kjer je fotonapetostni element mogoče opredeliti kot fotonapetostni modul v skladu s standardom IEC 61730-1 in IEC 61730-2, in sicer ločeno od elektronskega elementa;
b) Oprema z vgrajenim modulom tipa B, kjer fotonapetostnega elementa ni mogoče opredeliti kot fotonapetostni modul v skladu s standardom IEC 61730-1 in IEC 61730-2, in sicer ločeno od elektronskega elementa.
