The mechanical strength of photovoltaic modules is tested according to the IEC 61730:2021 standard. Manufacturers subject their panels to various tests to validate their durability. 05 kN/m 2, the snow load being 0. These loads are linked to tests as early as IEC 61215: 2021, which imposes these minimum resistances on. With Dlubal Software, you can model, analyze, and design any type of photovoltaic support structures and mounting systems efficiently. From load determination to verification of steel, aluminum, and concrete parts, all steps are integrated into one consistent environment for code-compliant design. The module (s) shall be mounted either on the rooftop of the house or on a metal pole that can be fixed to the wall of the house or separately in the ground, with the module (s) at least 3 (4) meters off the ground.
