Proper maintenance is necessary for the safe and reliable functioning of long-term solar power generation systems for decarbonization. So conducting electrical testing on the system according to the international standard is important. This article discusses the DC side testing of the IEC 62446-1 standard.
About IEC 62446-1
The IEC 62446-1 is an international standard for testing, documenting, and maintaining grid-connected photovoltaic systems. It sets standards for how system designers and installers of grid-connected PV systems must provide information and documentation to customers. This standard also describes DC testing of the PV system, which can also be used for periodic testing of the system.
In the standard, the test is classified into categories 1 and 2 according to the size of the PV system. Category 1 applies to all solar PV generation systems. Category 2 applies for larger or more complex systems such as mega solar power plant.
