            Abstract : 
Research on methods of performance testing and evaluation of PCSs for photovoltaic (PV) application is described. The major objective is establishment of unified test and evaluation methods. Performance testing and evaluation from R&D projects and comparison with overseas products are additional purposes. An outline of the facility, test results, problems, and comparisons for various products is shown. In addition, problems of PCS reliability are described
