4 Frequently Asked Questions about "Solar Photovoltaic Panel Regulation"

What are the regulations for solar panels?

The regulation requires you to correctly label your product, packaging, or accompanying documents, such as the instruction manual. You should provide product-specific warnings with your product. Note that some warning requirements may come from certain standards. This section lists several examples of standards for solar panels.

Does the general product safety regulation cover solar & photovoltaic systems?

It does not cover the entire solar or photovoltaic system, which may contain components such as frames, battery packs, and inverters. The General Product Safety Regulation sets safety requirements for consumer products.

What are the standards for solar panels?

Some standards set requirements such as those for performance, mechanical safety (e.g. load tests), and electrical safety. Note that you can find more solar panel standards on the CENELEC website. EN IEC 62938 – Photovoltaic (PV) modules – Non-uniform snow load testing EN 62716 – Photovoltaic (PV) modules – Ammonia corrosion testing

Are solar panel Standards harmonised?

The General Product Safety Regulation mandates that you use harmonised standards when they exist. Following harmonised standards requirements allows you to ensure that your product complies with the requirements set by the regulation. We could not find any solar panel standards that are harmonised under the regulation.
