1 GENERAL
In this guideline, the practical design, installation, inspection, and the
management methods of photovoltaic power generation systems, “hereafter call
PV system”, will be introduced.
Several kinds of PV systems, such as BCS and SHS, centralized PV systems, are
used for village electrification.
Small system
BCS(Battery Charge Station) For group
DC load
SHS (Solar Home System) For private use
PV System
SHS (Solar Home System) For private use
Large system
AC load Stand-alone PV system Centralized PV system
1
The general description of each system is outlined as follows.
1) BCS
BCS are composed of a PV array and a controller. The DC power generated by
the PV array is used for charging the user’s battery. One BCS is used in rotation
by five to ten users.
2) SHS
The PV array is installed individually on a house or public facility to supply
electric power. The SHS is composed of a PV array, a storage battery, a
controller, and DC electrical appliances, such as a FL lamp and indoor-wiring.
The DC power generated by the PV array is stored in the storage battery. The
controller controls the charge and discharge of the storage battery. DC power is
supplied to the indoor-wiring connected to all DC electric appliances.
3) Centralized PV Systems
PV arrays are centrally installed in one place in the village. A centralized PV
system is composed of a PV array, a storage battery, an inverter, a controller,
and a mini-grid for power distribution. The DC power generated by the PV
array is stored in the storage battery and converted into AC power by the
inverter when needed. AC power is distributed to all connected households by
the mini-grid.
4) Grid-connected PV Systems
PV arrays are installed in one place. Grid-connected PV systems are composed
of a PV array and an inverter. The DC power generated by the PV array is
converted into AC power, and then the AC power is supplied to grid.

1.4 Favorable Conditions for a Photovoltaic Power Generation
System
1) BCS
A densely populated district has the advantage to apply a BCS. A well-
organized village may be favorable for sustainable system operation.
Common uses of electricity are for lighting and radio. For the promotion of
sustainable operation, users should understand that BCS has limitations
regarding useable energy and appliances due to limitations of the battery
capacity.
2) SHS
For districts with a dispersed population, solar home systems is favorable
compared with BCS. Small and well organized villages are deemed necessary
for sustainable system operation.
Common uses of electricity are for lighting and small appliance loads. For the
promotion of sustainable operation, users should understand that SHS system
has limitations regarding useable energy and appliances due to limitations of
the battery capacity.
Common uses of electricity are for lighting and TV. For the promotion of
sustainable operation, additional applications may be useful. If the system is
designed to supply enough power, a centralized PV system can supply power
to various appliances. For example, ice-making by a chest freezer is possible.
Storage of fresh food such as a fish and meat is also possible with a cool box,
chest freezer, etc. A small size well pump without a storage tank can also be
used. The new application of electricity may create small business opportunities
in the village.
4) Grid-connected PV systems
A grid-connected PV system can be applied to districts with grid electrification.
Special technicians are requested for sustainable system operation. A grid-
connected PV system can supply surplus power to the grid and receive power
from the grid in case of power shortages.

2 SYSTEM DESIGN PROCEDURE
2.1 General
Two methods are used to make village electrification plans. One is a demand-
side method, the others is a supply-side method. Design of a power generation
system is generally based on demand. Design of a PV system is similar.
However, PV system design it is not always suitable.
Supply-side design may be useful for the design of a small PV system such as
BCS and SHS. The standardization of small PV systems is possible in this way.
Otherwise, demand-side design is proper for the design of a large PV system.

3 COLLECTION OF RELATED DATA
Key Points for Collecting Data
1) Collection of appropriate data
As the design of PV system is carried out based on the collected data, it is
important that the appropriate and relevant data be sourced. This information
and data can generally be collected from the relevant authorities and agencies
within a country or region, however more site specific and demographic
information may require surveys and potential consumer group interviews
and questionnaire-style surveys.
3.1 Demand
PV systems are utilized based on the type of electric appliances used by the
users. This information is gathered through a site survey. A total energy
requirement per day of (watt-hour per day) the loads is estimated by using the
calculation sheet.
1) DC load demand
As for DC loads, power consumption is calculated for each appliance and the
total power consumption for all appliances is summarized.
<Example>
Load Number Watt[W] Hour[h] [Wh]
TV B/W 14” 1 × 14 × 3 = 42
FL lamp 8W 1 × 8 × 6 = 48
FL lamp 20W 2 × 20 × 2 = 80
Total = 170
2) AC load demand
As for AC loads, power consumption [Wh] is calculated for each appliance, and
the total power consumption of all appliances is summarized. When only
apparent power (VA) is indicated, such as the case of motors, it is converted into
active power by the following equation.
6
<Example>
Load No. Active Duration [Wh] Start
power [W] hour [h] (peak)[VA]
TV Color 28” 1 × 28 × 2 = 56 56
FL lamp 20W 3 × 20 × 3 = 180 180
Washing machine 1 × 360 × 1 = 360 1,000
Total = 596 1,236
1) Irradiation
Irradiation data is generally stated as a daily average per month. The unit used
for irradiation is mega joules per square meter per day (MJ/m2/day) or
kilowatt-hours per square meter per day (kWh/m2/day) and is measured using
a pyranometer. As there are many areas where irradiation data is not available,
this can be estimated based on the sunshine hours recorded at an established
site near to the location of the project area.
4) Lightning
Lightning from thunderstorms and its frequency is useful. If considered
necessary, lightning protection should be installed and the systems properly
earthed.
7
4 SYSTEM DESIGN
System design determines the appropriate PV system to introduce to the project
being implemented based on the collected data.
8
4.1 Decision of the System Type
As for system selection, the type of system can be roughly selected according to
the load demand and affordable fees of the users. Choosing between a
centralized type and an individual type can be decided by the location of houses
and the choice of either an individual type or a BCS is made by considering
factors such as the economy and the state of organizations in the village.
Demand assumption is to assume the type of loads to be used such as lights and
electric appliances to be used, the duration of use, and the patterns of use. Based
on this assumption, power consumption per day or peak load current is
calculated. This data is basic for determining the system capacity and system
operation.
1) Irradiation (HA)
The unit of irradiation data used for PV system design should be converted to
kWh/m2/day. Generally the minimum irradiation data is used to
conservatively estimate the available energy from the sun.
The minimum monthly mean irradiation is used to calculate the capacity of PV
arrays and batteries to ensure a stable power supply throughout the year.
However, in areas where the monthly mean irradiation varies substantially
during a year, a PV system designed on the minimum irradiation data may not
be economical in some cases. For such cases, it is necessary to select irradiation
for design by considering characteristics of loads, the needs of users, and the
economy.
Generally, in areas of low latitude, the monthly mean insolation does not vary
largely during the year. Therefore, if the global insolation is used to design a PV
system, it does not result in large errors.

where:
Ep :generated electric power during a specific period [kWh/period]
PS :rated output of the PV array [kW]
HA :irradiation on the array surface during a specific period [kWh/m2/period]
(=1.0[kW/m2])
Gs :irradiance at standard condition = 1 [kW/m2]
KB :Modified performance ratio (KB = K * ηB * KBC)
11
4.4.1 Required PV Array Capacity
PV array output decreases under the influence of PV cell temperature, dirt and
dust sticking to PV module surface, and shadows of buildings and trees around
the PV array. A part of the power generated is consumed by the controller,
inverter, wiring cables, etc, and turned into loss. Hence, PV array capacity
should be calculated and determined by including such losses, which consider
correction coefficients.
When the power demand Ep is given, the required rated PV power PS can be
calculated with the equation 3.
Where:
PS :Required output of the PV array [kW]
Ep :Power demand at the output point of the system terminal during a day [kWh/day]
HA :Irradiation on the array surface during a specific period [kWh/m2/period]
Gs :Irradiance at standard condition = 1 [kW/m2]
KB :Modified performance ratio
From the result above, the total capacity of PV modules shall be more than39.6 kW.
12
4.4.2 Required Battery Capacity
The battery has a role of providing reserve power on rainy/cloudy days as well
as the role of supplying power for nighttime loads. Therefore, it must have a
capacity that can supply power stably even if rainy weather continues for
several days. However, placing emphasis on a stable supply of power may
result in the construction of excessive facilities in some cases. The battery
capacity must be determined by considering both reliability of the power supply
and the economy.
Battery storage capacity for a PV system can be calculated using the following
equation.
where:
BkWh : Battery capacity (kWh)
ELBd : Power demand a day (kWh/day) (power depend on the battery : ELBd=EP /ηI )
Nd : Number of continuous no sunshine days (3 – 5)
RB : Design margin of a battery ( 1.0 - 1.3 )
CBD : Degradation factor ( usually CBD = 1.0 )
UB : Available depth of discharge ( 0.5 - 0.8 )
δBD : Ratio of voltage drop at discharge
13
4.5 Selection of Components
Materials are selected from available materials that meet the requirements and
the capacity of the PV system is fixed. When many appropriate materials are
available, the optimal materials are selected considering economy, design,
workability, etc. Selection of major components for PV systems will be described
here as an example.
4.5.1 Battery
Number of batteries in series = circuit voltage / rated voltage of the battery selected
4.5.2 PV Module
Series number (integer) ≧ circuit voltage ÷ open circuit voltage of selected module
Open circuit voltage of array > Vbat + Vpv + Vp-b + Vc
14
(Vpv = ([cell temperature] - 25) * [temp. coeff.] * [module open circuit voltage] * [series number])
*Cell temp. : (When it is not clear, use 60℃.)
*Temp. coefficient : (When it is not clear, use 0.04 %/℃.)
V p-b : Voltage drop between PV and battery [V] (When it is not clear, use 1 V.)
(Vp-b = [cable length] * 2 * [cable resistance] x [maximum current])
V c : voltage drop in the controller [V] (When it is not clear, use 0.05% of Vbat)
2) PV array capacity
The maximum output operating current of a PV array should be greater than
the required operating current of the basic design. If the selected current
considerably exceeds the required operating current, the power supplied will be
large, but economic efficiency will deteriorate.
4.5.3 Other
1) Controller
The controller manages the charge and discharge of the battery and protects it
from being over-charged or over-discharged through pre-installed functions. In
some cases, over-current protection and reverse connection are installed.
The circuit voltage of the system is the same as the voltage of the controller.
The currents of the PV side and the load side are equal or lower than the
allowable current of the controller.
The controller has all the required functions.
The control voltage of the controller meets the characteristics of the batteries.
2) Inverter
The inverter is used to change DC power to AC power. Electric appliances
require AC power.
(a) The circuit voltage of the system is the same as the input voltage of the
inverter.
(b) AC output meets the load requirements.
(c) Peak capacity of the loads is satisfied.
(d) The inverter can apply to the rush power of the loads.
15
5 INSTALLATION
Installation is the actual work done to carry out the installation of the PV system.
In this document, installation is assumed to be executed by the consignment
contractor. The related processes are described in the following order:
preparation of procurement specifications, selection of the contractor,
coordination before installation, and execution of installation.
4) User Participation
Regarding installation work, it is important to seek cooperation from the users
by asking them to participate in the installation work. Through participation,
such as transportation and management of the materials, users will be able to
feel that the project is their own. Users can learn how to handle equipment and
materials through transportation and installation. Thus, such participation
serves as instruction and training for the users.
16
5.1 Preparation of Procurement Specifications
System design drawings are prepared with due attention to the following
points:
(a) Clear indication of the PV module configuration and PV array installation method.
(b) Prepare drawings that outline the entire configuration of the PV system.
(c) Clearly indicate materials used.
(a) Major components of PV system such as modules, batteries, and controllers are
selected based on delivery records and product performance in the past.
(b) Local procurement of equipment and materials is generally prioritized taking
maintenance of the equipment into consideration.
(c) If environmental conditions such as typhoons or salt damage exist, it is necessary to
consider the strength of the material with regard to wind load and salt-resistant coating.
17
5.1.3 Specification Sheets for Installation
To clarify the content for the contract, details regarding the following items
must be provided.
Supplied components If there are supplied components or materials, indicate the name,
or materials specification, quantity, delivery date, and method of delivery of each
material.
Method of installation Specify whether the person in charge of management needs to stay at
management the site.
Items to be reported Specify items required to be reported periodically, such as the progress
periodically of the work schedule.
Inspection Clearly specify inspection dates. For example, after the installation of
equipment, before the wiring, and at the time of final completion.
Witnessing of work Witness the positioning of equipment and the items to be confirmed at
the site.
Guarantee conditions Specify the content of the guarantee under normal use and the
guarantee period.
4) Drawing up a contract
The contract is made and signed in agreement with the contractors regarding
the content of the work, payment conditions, etc.
19
2) Installation management in the field
To carry out installation management in the field, it is necessary to visit the site
periodically and at the appropriate time.
20
6 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
PV systems are generally said to be maintenance-free. However, for rural
electrification projects, installation sites for such systems tend to be in remote
areas in many cases, and it may be difficult to respond quickly in the case of an
emergency. Therefore, it is important to inspect and maintain the systems
periodically, to detect faults earlier, and to improve operation methods. To
enhance operation and maintenance of the systems, it is effective to develop
manuals and keep records of operation by the technician. Moreover, it is
important to increase system reliability and to establish a system for the storage
and supply of equipment and materials, such as replacement parts.
2) Preparation of manuals
PV operation and maintenance systems are compiled in a manual. The
maintenance level of each system is equalized. This manual helps minimize
differences in engineering skills and enhances the operation and maintenance
efficiency of the systems.
4) Replacement of materials
The use of materials that can be procured from the local market is important.
However from an economic or reliability viewpoint, if it is difficult to obtain
imports or materials from the local market, a supply system must be
established that can deliver such items in a timely fashion.
21
6.1 Inspection Method
PV system inspection items are classified into items for visual inspection and
items for measurement. Inspections can be carried out on a daily and periodic
basis.
1) Visual Inspection
Visual inspection is a method used to confirm the state of the inspection items in
regard to fault or damage. Visual inspection items and the troubleshooting
measures are listed in Table 6-1. Tools, such as a screwdriver, may be used to
check the terminals for slackness.
2) Measurement Tests
The condition of PV systems is also confirmed through measurement tests. The
measurement test items and methods for judging results are shown in Table 6-2.
Some inverters have pre-installed protective function. The manuals of such
equipment must be checked regarding the testing procedure of such equipment.
If a problem is detected during measurement testing, the PV system is inspected
in detail and necessary repair measures are taken.
22

*Damage to the grounding conductor.
* Loose connection.
1) Daily Inspection
Daily inspection is executed by the person in charge of daily system operation
management. This inspection is for early detection of abnormality or trouble via
visual inspection. As for individual PV systems, users normally make daily
inspections. As for centralized PV systems and BCSs, an operator or a technician
usually makes daily inspections. Inspection of the PV systems once a week is
recommended.
2) Periodic Inspection
Periodic inspection should be carried out on the items that cannot be easily
examined on a daily basis. Periodic inspection includes visual inspection and
measuring tests. The measurement results are judged as to whether the data is
correct.
In the initial stage of the project, it is desirable to carry out inspections once a
month. When normal operation of the system has been confirmed, periodic
inspections once every two to six months is sufficient.
23
6.2 Manual
The content of the manuals differ depending on the system and the role of the
person who uses the manual. The content of the manuals for technicians in
charge of periodic inspection and the content of the manuals for the users will
be described separately as follows.
For manual preparation, proper introduction of the system is necessary.
Manuals used for similar projects or manuals provided by manufacturers serve
as appropriate references for the manual. Trouble experienced during operation
of the system and countermeasures should be included in the manual.
Manuals for engineers include the system installation methods, inspection and
maintenance, and troubleshooting.
1) Installation Methods
This manual includes the system configuration, lists of equipment and materials,
drawings and procedures, etc. Installation of the system can be executed
according to the manual. This manual can be utilized for new installations of
similar systems, for the removal or transfer of an existing system, and for PV
array repair.
3) Troubleshooting summarized
Regarding trouble that may occur during system operation, instances of trouble
from similar projects or anticipated problems are summarized and included in
the manual with the causes and countermeasures. Therefore, effective
countermeasures should be employed when trouble occurs. This manual
provides guidance in considering such countermeasures.
The items of the manual for users include the method of operation, method of
using electric appliances, and inspection and maintenance. It is important that
users who have little knowledge of electricity can easily understand the manual
with illustrations etc.
24
6.3 Operation and Maintenance Records
3) Trouble Records
The date and time of occurrence, kind of trouble, countermeasures etc. are
described in trouble records. Trouble is mainly caused by failures or
degradation of the systems themselves. Human errors such as improper
operation, negligent implementation of inspection and maintenance, etc are also
factors. Trouble records in relation to system operation can be used to
investigate the causes of trouble, consider preventive measures, and judge
whether a countermeasure is appropriate or not.
The expected life of a PV module is twenty years or more. The effective life of
other PV system components is shorter. Therefore, timely replacement of such
components is important for long-term stable operation of the system. The
25
replacement of major components and inspection particulars will be introduced
as follows. The method of storing spare parts will be described as well.
Users include local technicians should be properly trained before and after the
introduction of PV systems. Training method and contents described in the
“User Training Manual for Photovoltaic System”
The PV project executes installation, tariff collection, maintenance and technical
education, among others. To manage PV systems appropriately, various works
are required. Without completing the appropriate work, the PV project will not
be successful.
26
Project evaluation will study whether a project is planned and implemented
properly according to its objectives, how the project affects the surrounding
environment, and judges whether a project is successful or not based on the
results of the study. It is important to evaluate the project during
implementation and reconsider the implementation plan accordingly.
