6 FAQs about [Photovoltaic support lifting standards]

Are there any UK standards relating to a PV installation?

While many UK standards apply in general terms, at the time of writing there is still relatively little which specifically relates to a PV installation. However, there are two documents which specifically relate to the installation of these systems that are of particular relevance:

What is a roof mounted photovoltaic system guidance?

The guidance refers only to the mechanical installation of roof mounted integrated and stand-off photovoltaic systems; it provides best practice guidance on installation requirements and does not constitute fixing instructions.

What is needed to design a PV support structure?

More study is also needed for Elevated PV Support Structures. A wind pressure design method is needed. The flexibility of PV panels and the structures themselves must be better understood. Research by the Structural Engineers Association of California (SEAOC) formed the basis for key provisions of ASCE 7-16.

Can solar PV systems be installed on a pitched roof?

The guidelines also say that provision must be made for ventilation behind the solar PV modules to provide cooling. With the introduction of MCS012 in March 2012 we would now expect all MCS certified installers of solar PV systems to install solar PV systems on pitched roofs using only MCS012 certified roof fixings.

What is a large-span flexible PV support structure?

Proposed equivalent static wind loads of large-span flexible PV support structure. Flexible photovoltaic (PV) support structure offers benefits such as low construction costs, large span length, high clearance, and high adaptability to complex terrains.

Are all PV products covered by IEC61730 'photovoltaic (PV) module safety qualification?

In future it is expected that all PV products will increasingly be covered by International standard IEC61730: 2004 ‘Photovoltaic (PV) module safety qualification’.
