Abstract :
This paper describes a method of measuring and recording solar radiation data in a suitable form for the design of solar photovoltaic power systems. A prototype instrument has been developed which could be located at prospective sites for the collection of solar radiation data. A similar instrument is also being developed to evaluate the performance of photovoltaic power systems by integrating array and load currents.
