This international standard describes the fundamental construction and testing requirements
for Concentrator Photovoltaic (CPV) modules and assemblies in order to provide safe
electrical and mechanical operation during their expected lifetime. Specific topics are
provided to assess the prevention of electrical shock, fire hazards, and personal injury due to
mechanical and environmental stresses.
This standard attempts to define the basic requirements for various application classes of
concentrator photovoltaic modules and assemblies, but it cannot be considered to encompass
all national and regional codes.
This standard is designed so that its test sequence can coordinate with those of IEC 62108,
so that a single set of samples may be used to perform both the safety and performance
evaluation of a CPV module and assembly.
NOTE: CPV modules that are constructed in the flat plate module format and operate at 3X and less
geometric concentration ratio should be considered for evaluation to IEC 61730 Photovoltaic (PV)
module safety qualification Part 1: Requirements for construction, and Part 2: Requirements for
testing.
