About This Item
IEC 62805-2:2017 defines a technical method for measuring photovoltaic (PV) glass, with specific attention to transmittance and reflectance. For engineering teams, laboratories, and procurement specialists, it provides a focused reference for comparing optical performance data in a structured way. Using IEC 62805-2:2017 during product evaluation can support documented evaluation, technical review, and more consistent compliance workflows when PV glass properties must be assessed against a recognized test method.
Overview of IEC 62805-2:2017
The official title, Method for measuring photovoltaic (PV) glass - Part 2: Measurement of transmittance and reflectance, indicates a measurement-oriented document for PV glass optical characteristics. It is likely used to define how these properties are determined so that results are repeatable and suitable for comparison across laboratory evaluation or quality workflows. For organizations involved in technical validation or conformity assessment, the reference can help establish a consistent basis for measuring optical behavior in PV glass products.
Compliance applications of IEC 62805-2:2017
IEC 62805-2:2017 is relevant where photovoltaic glass must be assessed as part of product qualification, incoming inspection, supplier review, or laboratory testing. It may be used by manufacturers, test houses, and technical auditors who need a reliable measurement framework for transmittance and reflectance data. In procurement and regulatory preparation, it can support specification checks, engineering documentation, and product evaluation activities when PV glass performance claims need to be verified in a controlled and traceable manner.
Importance of compliance with IEC 62805-2:2017
Following IEC 62805-2:2017 can improve testing consistency and reduce ambiguity when optical measurements are used for technical assessment or conformity assessment preparation. A shared method helps different parties compare results with less risk of variation caused by inconsistent procedures, supporting quality assurance and operational consistency. For organizations managing risk management or compliance workflows, the document can be a practical reference when PV glass characteristics influence design decisions, acceptance criteria, or supplier qualification.
