IEC/TC 82 - IEC_TC_82

IEC/TC 82 is a Technical Committee within CLC. It is named "IEC_TC_82" and is responsible for: To prepare international standards for systems of photovoltaic conversion of solar energy into electrical energy and for all the elements in the entire photovoltaic energy system. In this context, the concept "photovoltaic energy system" includes the entire field from light input to a photovoltaic cell to and including the interface with the electrical system(s) to which energy is supplied. NOTE: It is recognized that there is some common interest between TC 47 and TC 82, therefore these two Committees shall maintain liaison. This committee has published 149 standards.

IEC/TC 82 develops CLC standards in the area of V23 - PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEMS. The scope of work includes: To prepare international standards for systems of photovoltaic conversion of solar energy into electrical energy and for all the elements in the entire photovoltaic energy system. In this context, the concept "photovoltaic energy system" includes the entire field from light input to a photovoltaic cell to and including the interface with the electrical system(s) to which energy is supplied. NOTE: It is recognized that there is some common interest between TC 47 and TC 82, therefore these two Committees shall maintain liaison. Currently, there are 149 published standards from this technical committee.

CLC is a standardization organization that develops and publishes standards to support industry, commerce, and regulatory requirements.

A Technical Committee (TC) in CLC is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
