適用范圍：This International Standard lays down requirements for the design qualification and typeapproval of terrestrial, thin-film photovoltaic modules suitable for long-term operation ingeneral open-air climates as defined in IEC 60721-2-1. This standard is intended to apply toall terrestrial flat plate module materials not covered by IEC 61215.The test sequence is derived from IEC 61215 for the design qualification and type approval ofterrestrial crystalline silicon PV modules. However, it no longer relies on meeting a plus/minuscriterion before and after each test, but rather on meeting a specified percentage of the ratedminimum power after all of the tests have been completed and the modules have been light-soaked. This eliminates the technology-specific preconditioning necessary to accuratelymeasure the changes caused by the test.This standard does not apply to modules used with concentrators.The object of this test sequence is to determine the electrical and thermal characteristics ofthe 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 thescope. The actual life expectancy of modules so qualified will depend on their design, theirenvironment and the conditions under which they are operated.
