Hi: The "cTUVus" mark is accredited by OSHA (NRTL), and considered equivalent to UL and CSA by city , county and state regulators throughout the US. The thing to check is that the applicable "cTUVus" standard was applied. In this case the test needs to be the cTUVus equivalent of UL1703. Here

Marco TUV can test to UL1703 standards not just IEC standards. UL still trys to make a big deal about the UL mark vs all other testing labs, but any NRTL ( Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratory) can certify to UL standards. The mark is what counts and it will state specific standards tested t

Hola. Does anyone know..For the U.S. market, is TUV certification to UL 1703 considered adequate? I've always thought that modules sold in the U.S. had to have actual testing and certification by U.L. directly or another nationally recognized test lab. Thanks, marco __

There is a theoretical physical limit for silicon based cells around 34% efficiency, so 20% for a whole module is quite good. To get past 34% researchers have gone to multi junction cells and concentrators, but it isn't practical for our purposes. Even with that they've only gotten into the lo
