This division is responsible for developing methods, procedures, and infrastructure for conducting tests, trials, and certification of equipment, components, and systems related to electrical energy.

​

This includes compliance assessment with technical standards, performance and safety verification, and ensuring the quality of products and services in the energy sector. The Testing and Certification division plays a fundamental role in guaranteeing the quality and safety of photovoltaic solar energy devices, with a special focus on photovoltaic modules and inverters.

​

Regarding photovoltaic modules, this division develops and implements rigorous testing protocols to evaluate the electrical, mechanical, and thermal performance of these devices. This includes conversion efficiency tests, output power stability over time, resistance to adverse weather conditions such as humidity and UV exposure, as well as structural durability to ensure the longevity and reliability of photovoltaic modules throughout their lifespan.

​

Additionally, the division conducts tests on photovoltaic inverters, which are essential components of solar energy systems, responsible for converting the electrical energy generated by photovoltaic modules into alternating current (AC) that can be used to power electrical loads. Testing of photovoltaic inverters covers various aspects, such as conversion efficiency, dynamic response to variations in solar irradiation and temperature conditions, output waveform quality, grid synchronization capability, as well as electrical safety assessments and protection against overvoltage and short circuits.
