Sun Simulator Testing / Flash Test
Solar panels' output power is tested. The flash testing equipment test the output characteristics, so that the quality level of the solar panel can be displayed. Solar Flash Tests (or: Sun Simulator Tests) measure the output performance of a solar PV module and are a standard testing procedure at manufacturers to ensure the conforming operability of each PV module. The appliance used for measuring the output performance conformity of a solar PV module is call flash test machine or sun simulator.
