IEC 60364-7-712:2025 applies to electrical installations of PV systems. The equipment of a PV system, like any other item of equipment, is dealt with only so far as its selection and application in the installation is concerned. A PV installation comprises all equipment from PV modules(s) up to the connection point to other parts of the installation, for example a distribution board or the utility supply point (point of connection).
This part of IEC 60364 includes requirements on electrical installation resulting from the installation of PV power supply installations.
Requirements relating to the possible installation of energy storage systems (e.g. batteries) are included.
Requirements are also included for PV installations for island mode operation described in IEC 60364-8-82.
This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2017. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) The technical content has been extensively revised and expanded, taking into account experience gained in the construction and operation of PV installations, and developments made in technology, since the second edition was published.
b) Key changes include requirements for PV power generation plants, direct connection to battery circuits, introduction of DC bus circuit and DCUs.
