Test method for endurance of photovoltaic component in hot and humid environments

Abstract

The invention discloses a test method for the endurance of a photovoltaic component in hot and humid environments. The method comprises the following steps: (1) performing outdoor exposing on the photovoltaic component to be tested, which is in the state of an open circuit; (2) exposing the photovoltaic component to be tested, which is exposed outdoors with ultraviolet light; (3) connecting the photovoltaic component to be tested, which is exposed with the ultraviolet light in a short-circuit manner, and testing the salt-spray corrosion of the photovoltaic component to be tested, which is in a short-circuit state; (4) testing the condensation humid of the photovoltaic component to be tested, on which the salt-spray corrosion test is performed; (5) testing an STH combined environment of the photovoltaic component to be tested, on which the condensation humid test is performed. The test method uses the true reaction service environment condition as the purpose, the illumination is introduced, besides, factors like seasons change and diurnal change are considered, and the light or hot or humid cycle tests are designed; the test method uses the representation the situation that the material is failed as the purpose, and combined tests, such as ultra violet resistance and salt fog corrosion tests are introduced, so that the durability of key materials of the photovoltaic component is checked comprehensively; the insufficiency of the standard test method can be overcome, and the using performance of the photovoltaic component in the long service term under the condition of humid and hot environments can be reflected.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a method for testing the durability of a photovoltaic module in a hot and humid environment, which is used for evaluating the durability of a photovoltaic module for long-term use in a hot and humid environment. Background technique

[0002] In recent years, with the decline in the manufacturing cost of photovoltaic modules, the ensuing problems of long life and high reliability have attracted more and more attention from the industry. Years of application in developed countries such as Europe and the United States have shown that certified photovoltaic modules still fail under complex environmental stresses during long-term outdoor use, greatly reducing power generation efficiency, and causing serious safety problems such as fires and leakage.

[0003] The current test standards aim at reproducing the failure mode of photovoltaic modules in the field work process, and design various types of accelerated tests to test and evalu...
