A. Quality Control in the Production Line, Warehouse, or Site of Installation.
Manufacturers of solar panels can test the characteristics for quality control purpose in the
production line. Due to the advantage of portability of the unit, quality inspectors can randomly
pick samples of solar panels and test them in the warehouse to assure quality before
shipment.
Installation engineer can randomly test samples of solar panels at site to verify the quality of
solar panels used at site of installation.
B. Identify the Solar Power System Requirement.
Measure the actual
maximum power (Pmax), voltage (Vmaxp), and current (Imaxp) at maximum power. Instead of
using the rated maximum power, the system designer needs to be aware of the actual solar
power from the solar panel under actual operating condition. So designer can actual know how
many pieces of solar panels are required to generate specific power.
The voltage and current under actual operating condition (in the morning, at noon, and in the
afternoon) are required for system designer to design the optimal charging system, so most of
the solar power can be absorbed and stored in the battery.
Users can test the characteristics of solar panel at different time of day and store the data.
Then the designer can know if the solar system can generate appropriate power at any time.
