Acceptance Sampling Plans for Evaluating the Performance of Solar Modules

The project (July 2006 - Dec 2006) is supported by TÜV Rheinland Immissionsschutz und Energiesysteme GmbH

End users and distributors of PV modules are faced with the problem of how to verify the power output specifications of a new shipment. Appropriate sampling plans and acceptance criteria are proposed under various distributional assumptions including the important case that additional information from a flasher report can be used to construct an acceptance function.
