Their particular strength is that tests can be performed without dismounting PV modules and shipping them to a test laboratory. It avoids transport risks and long PV systems down time.

On-site inspection allows a targeted failure analysis by selecting suitable test methods from:

  • Electrical inspection techniques
  • Imaging techniques
  • Spectroscopic methods
