PV inverter outdoor test

Do you need an electrician to test a solar inverter?

The testing must only be carried out by an ACT licensed electrician. For inverters with PV panels connected, the tests must be conducted at a time of day when weather conditions allow the PV system to be producing a minimum power output. This must be greater than 20 per cent of the rated output of the PV array or the inverter, whichever is less.

How do I test a PV inverter?

Use an AC / grid emulator to load and test the inverter’s output. Verifying the performance of PV inverters under varying weather and load conditions requires simulating solar arrays in the lab and AC / grid.

What is penetration testing in PV inverter?

Penetration testing provides a detailed overview of PV inverter security issues. The analysis is conducted by simulating a real hacker attack during the prototype development phase.

Where can I test my PV components?

Test your PV components, including PV modules, inverters, and batteries, in our accredited partner laboratories in Asia, Europe, and the USA. We are glad to help you implement laboratory testing in your Quality Assurance Plan (QAP), contact us to learn more about the options for your QAP. What PV laboratory tests are available?

How can we verify the reliability of PV inverters?

To verify the reliability of PV inverters in diverse application scenarios, such as hot, cold, damp, high-altitude and offshore environments, a variety of extreme harsh environmental conditions can be simulated in our laboratory for testing and verification in accordance with IEC 60068-2 standards.

Are PV inverters safe and reliable?

As vital components of PV systems, PV inverters must be safe and reliable. PV inverters are critical components of PV power systems, and play a key role in ensuring the longevity and stability of such systems. The relevant standards ensure that your inverters perform safely, efficiently and with wide applicability.
