What is a solar PV certification?

This qualification serves as a supplementary short course, supporting the professional development of competent electricians who meet industry entry requirements outlined in the Electrotechnical Assessment Specification (EAS). It is designed as CPD for qualified electricians to be able to install and maintain small solar PV systems.

Do I need a Delta qualification for a solar cell?

Qualification is required when introducing a new solar cell design. Delta qualification is required when making modifications to the materials and processes used to manufacture a qualified cell. If the materials and process changes are limited, these may be considered and evaluated for the scope of a delta qualification.

Do PV modules need to be updated?

As the work of IEC TC 82 has progressed, a number of new standards for PV components and balance of system equipment have been introduced. Accordingly, the requirements for the safety of PV modules must also be updated to reference these new standards and to fully leverage the benefits that can be achieved by compliance with their requirements.

What are the new PV standards?

The revised standards adopt widely accepted approaches in a way that specifically addresses PV technology and manufacturing processes. The standards will also support innovation in the design and manufacture of PV modules, and provide greater design flexibility in achieving the most efficient and productive outcomes.

What is the first international standard governing the safety of PV modules?

The first international standard governing minimum construction requirements for the safety of PV modules was the first edition of IEC 61730, published in 2004.
