What are solar home systems & rural health power supply systems (RHS) standards?

The publication provides an overview of standards that are relevant for Solar Home Systems (SHS) and in Rural Health Power Supply Systems (RHS). It is intended to facilitate the selection of PV systems and components, especially in tenders, and to provide the impetus for a standardisation of PV systems on a scale that is as broad as possible.

What is a PV standard?

It is intended to facilitate the selection of PV systems and components, especially in tenders, and to provide the impetus for a standardisation of PV systems on a scale that is as broad as possible. Moreover, it also identifies those components for which there is still a need for technical specifications.

How to ensure the quality of a photovoltaic power system?

To assure the quality of a photovoltaic power system and its correct functioning and guarantee costumers' satisfaction it is important that the components of the system and the system as a whole meet certain requirements.

What standards are available for the energy rating of PV modules?

Standards available for the energy rating of PV modules in different climatic conditions, but degradation rate and operational lifetime need additional scientific and standardisation work (no specific standard at present). Standard available to define an overall efficiency according to a weighted combination of efficiencies.

What is Quality Management in photovoltaics?

A comprehensive training manual entitled "Quality Management in Photovoltaics" was published in August 1999 which contains specific quality assurance standards for PV components as well as an updated list of relevant IEC standards. It also comprises proposed standards that are currently in progress (IEC TC 82 Work in Progress). 3

Are PV systems suitable for rural health stations?

Systems and components that are used for power supply to rural health stations (RHS) have to meet higher standards as a matter of principle. The available experience with PV systems in this area of application to date as well as a series of documents, especially from WHO, were evaluated and condensed.
