Standards from this category regulate solar cells (modules) characteristic measurement, solar cells (modules) tests and other standards referring to solar cells (modules) production and testing - production procedure, mechanic or electric photovoltaic module testing, I-U module characteristics measurement etc.
There are currently 169 published IEC standards by TC-82 related to photovoltaic technology, and work is in progress for 69 more (new ones or revisions). This set of standards is the most broadly used by the scientific community and technicians in research centres and companies.
These requirements are intended to minimize the misapplication and misuse of PV modules or the failure of their components which could result in fire, electric shock and personal injury. At a commercial Solar PV Plant, DC voltage in a string of a PV Modules may go up to 1500 VDC in accordance with NEC. Therefore,

Standardization and Regulations for PV Technologies
The standard ISO 15387:2005 (reviewed and confirmed in 2021) was devoted to calibration and measurements of single-junction solar cells for space applications (under AM0 spectral irradiance). They also published one standard related to specification for glass to be used in building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) applications (ISO/TS 18178:2018 ...
