    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Sets out general installation and safety requirements for photovoltaic (PV) arrays, including d.c. array wiring, electrical protection devices, switching and earthing up to but not including energy storage devices, power conversion equipment or loads.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This Standard sets out general installation and safety requirements for photovoltaic (PV)arrays, including d.c. array wiring, electrical protection devices, switching and earthing upto but not including energy storage devices, power conversion equipment or loads.The safety requirements of this Standard are critically dependent on the inverters associatedwith PV arrays complying with the requirements of IEC 62109-1 andIEC 62109-2 and all power conditioning equipment complying with IEC 62109 seriesstandards.PV arrays of less than 240 W and less than 50 V open circuit voltage at Standard TestCondition (STC) are not covered by this Standard.
