Before LG Solar modules leave the factory, they undergo a broad range of tests that guarantee the quality of production. We ensure our modules meet strict requirements so that you get a return on your investment.

Testing is carried out by our own in-house test laboratory, which is certified by the TÜV Rheinland and Underwriters Laboratories. The tests satisfy all of the requirements that are part of the latest test standards. Here you can find the various test procedures that our modules have to pass.

Weather test
In order to prevent premature material fatigue, our products are tested for their weather resistance in wet and cold conditions as well as under extreme changes in temperature.

Maximum output test
After undergoing various stress tests, the module is subjected to a output test. The test is only passed if the nameplate output is reached consistently.

Mechanical load test
Solar modules need to be able to demonstrate considerable resistance: Sophisticated mechanical load tests monitor whether our modules can resist adverse conditions such as strong winds as well as snow and ice in colder climates.

Module breakage test
Stone chips, branches and wind borne objects are a “natural enemy” of solar modules. The LG module breakage test examines the tolerance of the modules against stones and other objects that can hit the surface during their life.

Hail test
A hailstorm is a destructive force that solar modules need to be able to withstand. In our hail test, hailstones made of ice are fired at the modules and a check is then performed to test the modules functionality.

Individual materials testing
To ensure that the solar modules function properly in terms of their component interaction, individual parts such as wafers, ethylene vinyl acetate film (EVA), glass and backing film are subjected to stringent tests.
