35、d.5. Significance and Use5.1 Because there are a number of choices in this test method that depend on different applications and system configurations,it is the responsibility of the user of this test method to specify the details and protocol of an individual system power measurementprior to the be

36、ginning of a measurement.5.2 Unlike device-level measurements that report performance at a fixed device temperature of 25C, such as Test MethodsE1036, this test method uses regression to a reference ambient air temperature.5.2.1 System power values calculated using this test method are therefore muc

37、h more indicative of the power a system actuallyproduces compared with reporting performance at a relatively cold device temperature such as 25C.5.2.2 Using ambient temperature reduces the complexity of the data acquisition and analysis by avoiding the issues associatedwith defining and measuring th

38、e device temperature of an entire photovoltaic system.5.2.3 The user of this test method must select the time period over which system data are collected, and the averaging intervalfor the data collection within the constraints of 8.3.5.2.4 It is assumed that the system performance does not degrade

39、or change during the data collection time period. Thisassumption influences the selection of the data collection period because system performance can have seasonal variations.5.3 The irradiance shall be measured in the plane of the modules under test. If multiple planes exist (particularly in the c

40、aseof rolling terrain), then the plane or planes in which irradiance measurement will occur must be reported with the test results. Inthe case where this test method is to be used for acceptance testing of a photovoltaic system or reporting of photovoltaic systemE2848 133performance for contractual

41、purposes, the plane or planes in which irradiance measurement will occur must be agreed upon by theparties to the test prior to the start of the test.NOTE 1In general, the irradiance measurement should occur in the plane in which the majority of modules are oriented. Placing the measurementdevice in

42、 a plane with a larger tilt than the majority will cause apparent under-performance in the winter and over-performance in the summer.5.3.1 The linear regression results will be most reliable when the measured irradiance, ambient temperature, and wind speeddata during the data collection period are d

43、istributed around the reporting conditions. When this is not the case, the reported powerwill be an extrapolation to the reporting conditions.5.4 Accumulation of dirt (soiling) on the photovoltaic modules can have a significant impact on the system rating. The user ofthis test may want to eliminate

44、or quantify the level of soiling on the modules prior to conducting the test.5.5 Repeated regression calculations on the same system to the same RC and using the same type of irradiance measurementdevice over successive data collection periods can be used to monitor performance changes as a function

45、 of time.5.6 Capacity determinations are power measurements and are adequate to demonstrate system completeness. However, a singlecapacity measurement does not provide sufficient information to project the energy generation potential of the system over time.Factors that may affect energy generation

46、over time include: module power degradation, inverter clipping and overloading,shading, backtracking, extreme orientations, and filtering criteria.6. Reporting Conditions6.1 The user of this test method shall select an appropriate RC prior to the start of the test. appropriate RC. In the case wheret

47、his test method is to be used for acceptance testing of a photovoltaic system or reporting of photovoltaic system performance forcontractual purposes, the RC RC, or the method that will be used to derive the RC, must be agreed upon by the parties to the testprior to the start of the test.6.1.1 Repor

48、ting conditions may be selected either on the basis of expected conditions or actual conditions during the datacollection period. Choose RC irradiance and ambient air temperature values that are representative of the in-planePOA irradianceand ambient air temperature expected for the system location

49、for a clear day in the data collection period. Irradiance conditionsWhen the selection is based on expected conditions, irradiance can be evaluated based on from a year-long hourly dataset ofprojected POAvalues calculated from historical data measured directly on the system site or at a nearby site.Ambient temperaturescan be evaluated by a review of historical data from the site or a nearby location. Reference ConditionsReporting conditions shouldbe chosen such that the system is not subject to
