4、rs usingsimulated sunlight or outdoors in natural sunlight by referenceto a primary reference cell previously calibrated to the samedesired reference spectral irradiance distribution.1.3 Secondary reference cells calibrated according to thistest method will have the same radiometric traceability as
5、theof the primary reference cell used for the calibration.Therefore,if the primary reference cell is traceable to theWorld Radiometric Reference(WRR,see Test Method E816),the resulting secondary reference cell will also be traceable tothe WRR.1.4 This test method applies only to the calibration of a
6、photovoltaic cell that demonstrates a linear short-circuit currentversus irradiance characteristic over its intended range of use,as defined in Test Method E1143.1.5 This test method applies only to the calibration of aphotovoltaic cell that has been fabricated using a singlephotovoltaic junction.1.
