6 FAQs about [Standard practice for DC lines of photovoltaic panels]

Are there any UK standards relating to a PV installation?

While many UK standards apply in general terms, at the time of writing there is still relatively little which specifically relates to a PV installation. However, there are two documents which specifically relate to the installation of these systems that are of particular relevance:

How do I choose a DC cable for a grid-connected PV system?

The cables used for wiring the d.c. section of a grid-connected PV system need to be selected to ensure that they can withstand the environmental, voltage and current conditions at which they may be expected to operate. This will include heating effects of both current and solar gain.

What should be considered when designing electrical installations for DC systems?

When designing electrical installations for d.c. systems, consideration should be given not only to the selection of products used to initially erect and commission the system, but also to ensuring that suitable devices are used during maintenance or repair.

What is the domestic solar PV scheme?

The Domestic Solar PV Scheme operates under the Microgeneration Support Scheme (MSS) and provides a grant towards the purchase and installation of a solar PV system for homeowners. This takes the form of a once-off payment to a homeowner based on the installation of products which meet the requirements of the Scheme.

What is the new solar code of practice?

This new Code of Practice sets out the requirements for the design, specification, installation, commissioning, operation and maintenance of grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) systems installed in the UK. It is aimed at ensuring safe, effective and competently installed solar PV systems.

Are all PV products covered by IEC61730 'photovoltaic (PV) module safety qualification?

In future it is expected that all PV products will increasingly be covered by International standard IEC61730: 2004 ‘Photovoltaic (PV) module safety qualification’.
