Photovoltaic (PV) Modules
There are two main types of Photovoltaic modules, Crystalline silicon and thin film silicon. While all of these technologies are used to generate electricity from solar energy, there are some differences that exist in their manufacturing process, and these differences affect the performance of the modules. We also conduct conformity assessments for the mechanical
load of the frame (wind, hail and snow) and the stability of the module once mounted using the designated method.
Conformity Assessment
Manufacturers achieve a smooth entry into Europe and other markets by marking the module with the TUVdotCOM ID and DIN mark. The following standards are applicable:
- IEC/EN 61215; Crystalline silicon terrestrial photovoltaic modules- Design qualifi cation and type approval.
- IEC/EN 61730 & 61730-2; Photovoltaic module safety qualifi cation.
- IEC/EN 61646; Thin fi lm terrestrial photovoltaic modules.
- IEC 61345; UV test for photovoltaic modles
