Terrestrial photovoltaic (PV) modules - Design qualification and type approval - Part 1-3: Special requirements for testing of thin-film amorphous silicon based photovoltaic (PV) modules

This part of IEC 61215 lays down IEC requirements for the design qualification and type
approval of terrestrial photovoltaic modules suitable for long-term operation in general openair
climates, as defined in IEC 60721-2-1. This document is intended to apply to all thin-film
amorphous silicon (a-Si; a-Si/μc-Si) based terrestrial flat plate modules. As such, it addresses
special requirements for testing of this technology supplementing IEC 61215-1:2016 and
IEC 61215-2:2016 requirements for testing.
This document does not apply to modules used with concentrated sunlight although it may be
utilized for low concentrator modules (1 to 3 suns). For low concentration modules, all tests
are performed using the current, voltage and power levels expected at the design
concentration.
The object of this test sequence is to determine the electrical and thermal characteristics of
the module and to show, as far as possible within reasonable constraints of cost and time,
that the module is capable of withstanding prolonged exposure in climates described in the
scope. The actual lifetime expectancy of modules so qualified will depend on their design,
their environment and the conditions under which they are operated.
This document defines PV technology dependent modifications to the testing procedures and
requirements per IEC 61215-1:2016 and IEC 61215-2:2016.

Terrestrische kristalline Silizium-Photovoltaik-(PV)-Module - Bauarteignung und Bauartzulassung - Teil 1-3: Besondere Anforderungen für Prüfungen von Photovoltaik-(PV)-Modulen aus amorphem Silizium

Modules photovoltaïques (PV) pour applications terrestres - Qualification de la conception et homologation - Partie 1-3: Exigences particulières d'essai des modules photovoltaïques (PV) au silicium amorphe à couches minces

L'IEC 61215-1-3:2016 établit les exigences pour la qualification de la conception et l'homologation des modules photovoltaïques (PV) pour applications terrestres et pour une utilisation de longue durée dans les grandes zones climatiques à l'air libre, telles qu'elles sont définies dans l'IEC 60721-2-1. Le présent document est destiné à s'appliquer à tous les modules à plaque plane au silicium amorphe (a-Si; a-Si/µc-Si) à couches minces pour applications terrestres. A ce titre, il spécifie des exigences d'essai particulières à cette technologie en complément des exigences d'essai données dans l'IEC 61215-1:2016 et l'IEC 61215-2:2016.

Prizemni fotonapetostni (PV) moduli - Ocena zasnove in odobritev tipa - 1-3. del: Posebne zahteve za preskušanje fotonapetostnih modulov iz tankoslojnega amorfnega silicija

Ta del standarda IEC 61215 določa zahteve IEC glede ocene zasnove in tipske odobritve prizemnih fotonapetostnih modulov, primernih za dolgotrajno uporabo v običajnih okoljih na prostem, kot je opredeljeno v standardu IEC 60721-2-1. Ta dokument je namenjen za uporabo za vse ploščate prizemne module iz tankoslojnega amorfnega silicija (a-Si; a-Si/μc-Si). Kot tak obravnava posebne zahteve za preskušanje te tehnologije, ki dopolnjujejo zahteve za preskušanje iz standardov IEC 61215-1:2016 in IEC 61215-2:2016.
Ta dokument se ne uporablja za module za uporabo s koncentrirano sončno svetlobo, lahko pa se uporablja za nizkokoncentracijske module (1 do 3 sončni viri). Za nizkokoncentracijske module se vsi preskusi izvedejo s tokovno, napetostno in močnostno ravnjo, ki so pričakovane pri načrtovani koncentraciji.
Namen tega preskusnega zaporedja je določiti električne in toplotne lastnosti modula ter prikazati (kot je mogoče v razumnih stroškovnih in časovnih omejitvah), da je modul zmožen prenesti učinke dolgotrajne izpostavljenosti v okoljih, opisanih v razdelku z opredeljenim področjem uporabe. Dejanska pričakovana življenjska doba tako kvalificiranih modulov je odvisna od njihove zasnove, okolja uporabe in pogojev delovanja.
Ta dokument določa spremembe preskusnih postopkov in zahtev v skladu s standardoma IEC 61215-1:2016 in IEC 61215-2:2016, ki so odvisne od prizemne fotonapetostne tehnologije.
