This Code of Practice sets out the requirements for the design,
specification, installation, commissioning, operation, and maintenance
of grid-connected solar photovoltaic (PV) systems.
Key safety considerations in the protection and earthing of PV systems
mounted on buildings and on the ground is covered in detail. It also
contains requirements for commissioning, monitoring and maintenance
throughout the lifetime of an installation. It is an invaluable resource
for technicians and supervisors who may be responsible for overseeing
solar PV systems deployment.
This second edition provides updated information to ensure that a solar
PV system is designed, competently installed and safe to operate in
compliance with current national and international standards - including
alignment to BS 7671:2018+A2:2022 and other relevant industry standards.
