BS EN 60904-5:1996 is a British Standard that specifies the measurement procedures for determining the electrical output of terrestrial photovoltaic (PV) solar cells under natural sunlight. This standard provides guidelines for the characterization of the electrical performance of solar cells, including their current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and power output.
BS EN 60904-5:1996 covers a range of PV solar cell technologies, including crystalline silicon, thin-film, and multijunction cells. The standard specifies the requirements for the test equipment used to measure the electrical performance of solar cells, including the calibration procedures for the equipment.
The standard also provides guidelines for the measurement of the spectral response of solar cells, which is the amount of electrical current generated by the cell in response to different wavelengths of light. This information is important for understanding the efficiency of the cell and for designing PV solar modules.
Overall, BS EN 60904-5:1996 is an important standard that helps ensure the accuracy and consistency of measurements of the electrical performance of PV solar cells. This standard is used by manufacturers, testing laboratories, and certification bodies to ensure that solar cells meet the required performance specifications.
