Abstract
To verify the performance of a photovoltaic (PV) module in mismatching conditions, different procedures based on two typical experimental PV module tests, one with all cells fully irradiated and the other with one or more totally shaded cells, are proposed. Such procedures provide parameters and characteristics which can be useful for characterizing the quality of a module. These procedures can be the basis for a conventional acceptance test
