Photovoltaic certification

Introduction

Photovoltaic certification is a national accredited certification body. For example, TUV (Technical Inspection Association), IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission), and China Quality Certification Center (CQC) have certified photovoltaic companies' products to meet their relevant standards. The certification of photovoltaic products can be divided into two major categories: safety certification and performance certification.
