| Abstract | AC Partial Discharge (PD) specification has been a key design parameter for PV backsheets, as called for in IEC 61730-1. In previous work, we have studied how the structure of polymeric materials can impact their behavior in this test. In this paper, we shift the focus to consideration of potential root causes which can lead to electrical degradation in actual usage (e.g. a PV module producing DC power), and the efficacy of the AC partial discharge test in air and oil to identify these. The suitability of utilizing AC voltage stresses in PV is also challenged in this paper. New experimental evidence is presented as to why testing partial discharge with AC with specimens immersed in the medium is not suitable for testing of solar backsheet materials. PD measurements can be very different for tests performed in air versus oil, and can lead to different pass/fail conclusions for the same material. When tested in oil, materials with voids had a much lower Ve than materials with no voids; in air, there was no difference in Ve for a material prepared with and without voids. With regard to AC versus DC testing the time to breakdown versus voltage was measured for both; these are not linearly related: the AC and DC breakdown voltages for one material study were 25 kV(AC) and 85 kV (DC), more than 3× difference; the voltages which led to breakdown after 10000 seconds were 5 kV(AC) and 50 kV (DC), a 10× difference. The issues raised in this study are active areas of discussion for the TC 82 WG2 Standards Committee. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
