    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Provides requirements for the classification, selection, packaging, marking, calibration and care of photovoltaic reference devices.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This part of IEC60904 gives requirements for the classification, selection, packaging, marking, calibration and care of photovoltaic reference devices. This standard covers photovoltaic reference devices used to determine the electrical performance of photovoltaic cells, modules and arrays under natural and simulated sunlight. It does not cover photovoltaic reference devices for use under concentrated sunlight.
