Abstract/Summary:

---

This article presents a methodology to verify the peak power of the generator (PV modules) in the commissioning test of large scale PV plants. This procedure has been implemented in the commissioning of many large PV plants from 2008 in Spain and Italy with very good results. This methodology is a very useful tool to control the quality of PV plants and enables, when is included in the construction contracts, adjust the final price to the real installed peak power.
