Book ·
OSTI ID:5716694
The criteria which the state of California will use to certify solar energy equipment marketed in the state are identified. It establishes inspection, test and analytical requirements that must be met by solar equipment manufacturers. It also describes the activities of solar equipment manufacturers, solar equipment test laboratories, and the California Energy Commission. The publication specifically establishes standards and procedures for the testing and labeling of flat-plate collectors used in solar energy systems. The scope of certification will be extended to cover entire solar hot water systems and other equipment used in complete systems, such as controls, heat exchangers, unglazed collectors, and storage devices.
