Specific topics are provided to assess the prevention of electric shock, fire hazards, and personal injury from mechanical and environmental stresses. This part of IEC EN 61730 deals with the specific requirements of the structure. IEC EN 61730-2 defines test requirements.

This International series of standards sets out the IEC requirements for terrestrial photovoltaic modules suitable for long-term operation in outdoor climates. This standard is intended to apply to all terrestrial flat plate module materials, such as crystalline silicon module types and thin film modules.

This international standard does not address specific requirements for products that combine a PV module with power conversion equipment, monitoring or control electronics such as integrated inverters, converters or output deactivation functions. While the sections of this standard are applicable to flat-plate PV modules with low level concentration generated internally below 3 times, they are not specifically written to address these concerns.

This international standard is designed to coordinate with test sequences in the IEC 61215 series so that a single sample set can be used to perform both the safety and qualification of a photovoltaic module design.
