T/CSTM 00502-2024 The method for testing the reliability of photovoltaic modules operating at high temperatures
Basic Information
Scope
Scope: This document specifies the terms and definitions, requirements, test procedures, and test reports for the reliability testing of photovoltaic modules under high-temperature operating conditions. This document applies to crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules installed on roofs where the minimum distance between the lowest point of the photovoltaic module and the roof surface should be no less than 50 mm, and the 98% operating temperature (T98th) of the photovoltaic module exceeds 70°C but does not exceed 75°C. The specific test method should be further evaluated based on the installation method.
