Leading ‘Solar Module Super League’ (SMSL) member JinkoSolar said it was the first to have passed the IEC 61701 Ed. 3 (FDIS) certification with its latest mainstream high-performance ‘Tiger Pro’ PV modules. The tests were conducted by TÜV NORD.

Dr. Hao Jin, Chief Technology Officer of JinkoSolar said: “As a highly innovative module supplier, we are constantly innovating and improving our high-efficiency products to set standards for the industry going forward. CX testing conditions are closest to reproducing some of the harshest real-world environments and were recently applied to IEC 61701 Ed. 3 (FDIS) certification having originally been designed for automobile parts and coating.
