About This Item
IEC 62788-1-2:2016 is the technical reference for measuring the volume resistivity of photovoltaic encapsulants and other polymeric materials used in module construction. It is relevant where material electrical behavior must be checked as part of engineering documentation, product evaluation, or conformity assessment. By defining a repeatable measurement approach, IEC 62788-1-2:2016 supports more consistent technical review and helps organizations compare materials during procurement, validation, and quality workflows.
What is IEC 62788-1-2:2016?
This document belongs to the Measurement procedures for materials used in photovoltaic modules series and focuses specifically on encapsulants. Its purpose is to guide the measurement of volume resistivity for photovoltaic encapsulants and related polymeric materials, which may be important for electrical performance review and documented evaluation. For laboratories, manufacturers, and compliance teams, it provides a structured technical basis for testing workflows and helps align internal procedures with a recognized reference.
Applications of IEC 62788-1-2:2016
IEC 62788-1-2:2016 is typically used in laboratory evaluation, material qualification, and supplier comparison for photovoltaic module components. It can support technical assessment during encapsulant selection, incoming inspection, and product validation activities where electrical properties of polymeric materials matter. Organizations may also rely on it when preparing test plans, reviewing verification activities, or building technical documentation for module materials used in regulated or performance-sensitive environments.
Why is IEC 62788-1-2:2016 important?
Consistent measurement of volume resistivity helps reduce uncertainty in material selection and supports operational consistency across testing programs. For photovoltaic module supply chains, that can improve quality assurance, reduce risk in engineering decisions, and strengthen conformity assessment preparation. IEC 62788-1-2:2016 also helps teams compare results more reliably between laboratories or projects, which is valuable for procurement review, technical validation, and compliance workflows involving encapsulant materials.
