Description
Summary:A sequence of tests is identified to assess the reliability and safety of residential photovoltaic systems. In addition, a standard means of characterizing a PV system in terms of its power and energy performance is presented. At present, these tests and characterization procedures are being applied to prototype residential systems under evaluation at the regional Residential Experiment Stations located in Concord, Massachusetts and Las Cruces, New Mexico.
