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 should be considered when designing a solar PV system?

4.6.3 The design and installation of solar PV system should aim to minimise the risk of the system being the source of fire and minimise the risk to occupants or emergency services (consideration must be given to the relevant UAE fire code requirements). The following are some measures for consideration:

What are the requirements for solar PV DC cables?

1169/08.2007, VDE PV 01:2008-02 and BS EN 50618.] 5.2.12 Solar PV d.c. cables should be sized in accordance with the requirements of the Electricity Wiring Regulations. The current carrying capacity for cables shall be at least 1.25 times the Isc under standard test conditions (STC).

What are the safety requirements for solar PV modules?

3.5.3 Solar PV Modules when connected in series they form a PV String and the parallel aggregation of PV Strings will form a PV Array as shown below. Class A modules meet the safety class II, these are mandatory. Class B modules meet the safety class 0, these are not permitted. Class C modules meet the safety class III, these are not permitted.
