Scope

GB/T 38344-2019 is the English-translated version of 建筑用太阳能光伏夹层玻璃的重测导则.

GB/T 38344-2019 tells manufacturers of building-integrated photovoltaic laminated glass which tests have to be repeated when a material or a process parameter changes.

For each kind of change - in the glass, in crystalline silicon or thin-film cells, in the interlayer, in the bus bars, in the insulating tape or in the terminal and junction box - it lists the retest items, from appearance, dimensional tolerance and bow to maximum power and thermal cycling, to be carried out against chapter 6 of GB/T 29551-2013.

It also covers the test methods, the inspection rules and what the test or certification report must contain, so that a modified product can be requalified without repeating the full type test. Issued on 31 December 2019, it has applied since 1 November 2020.

GB/T 29551-2013 Solar photovoltaic laminated glass for building

3 Requirements

Projects for retesting of solar photovoltaic laminated glass for construction due to changes in various parameters shall meet the following requirements, and the requirements for retesting projects shall be in accordance with The corresponding requirements in Chapter 6 of GB/T 29551-2013 are implemented.

a) The retest items to be performed when the glass parameters change are shown in Table 1;

b) The retest items to be performed when the parameters of crystalline silicon solar cells change are shown in Table 2;

c) The retest items to be performed when the parameters of the thin-film solar cell change are shown in Table 3;

d) The retest items to be performed when the parameters of the middle layer change are shown in Table 4;

e) The retest items to be performed when the bus bar parameters change are shown in Table 5;

f) The retest items to be performed when the parameters of the insulating tape are changed are shown in Table 6;

g) The retest items to be performed when the parameters of the terminal are changed are shown in Table 7.

Note 1. The glass is the outer glass and inner glass referred to in 5.1 of GB/T 29551-2013.

Note 2. Solar cells are crystalline silicon solar cells and thin-film solar cells referred to in 5.2 of GB/T 29551-2013.

Note 3. The intermediate layer is the adhesive film for bonding mentioned in 5.3 of GB/T 29551-2013.
