Overview
In this standard, procedures to be followed are described for temperature and irradiance corrections to the measure I-V (current-voltage) characteristics of photovoltaic devices. It also defines the procedures which shall be used to determine factors relevant for these corrections. Requirements for I-V measurement of photovoltaic devices are laid down in IEC 60904-1. The responsible Committee is K 373 "Photovoltaische Solarenergie-Systeme" ("Solar photovoltaic energy systems") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Informational Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
