Photovoltaic panel crack rate determination standard

In this study, a methodology developed according to the IEC TS 60904-13 standard is presented, allowing for the calculation of the percentage of type C cracks in a PV panel and subsequently estimating the associated power loss. Electroluminescence (EL) tests are employed to detect these cracks. Manufacturing defects, such as stresses during cell soldering, lamination pressures and production line handling.
