Solar inverter calibration solution

What is a photovoltaic calibration lab?

We are proud to house and manage one of the few commercial photovoltaic and calibration test laboratories in the world. The PV Calibration Lab uses state of the art equipment, including the Oriel Class AAA 8x8 inch Sol3A solar simulator and Oriel Quantum Efficiency Systems, in order to provide record-setting certifications for photovoltaic cells.

What equipment does the PV calibration lab use?

The PV Calibration Lab uses state of the art equipment, including the Oriel Class AAA 8x8 inch Sol3A solar simulator and Oriel Quantum Efficiency Systems, in order to provide record-setting certifications for photovoltaic cells. The Lab welcomes requests for prototype PV device performance measurements or PV reference cell re-certifications.

Do solar inverters convert DC to AC?

PV panels supply power in the form of direct current (DC), which has to be converted to alternating current (AC) before it can be fed into the grid and consumed locally or transmitted to the point of use. Solar inverters convert DC to AC. Unfortunately, we were unable to load the content for this section.

What is a solar irradiance Characterization System?

These systems are critical tools for PV characterization, as they serve as baseline irradiance and electrical measurements under solar simulation. Annual certification is recommended in order to ensure accuracy and consistency of measurements under a solar simulator.
