Standard: Qualification and Quality Requirements for Electrical Components on Space Solar Panels (AIAA S-112A-2013)

This document establishes qualification and quality requirements for the electrical components integrated onto spacecraft solar panels that carry single crystal silicon solar cells or gallium arsenide solar cells having any number of junctions including those with metamorphic and inverted metamorphic structure. In this standard the term panel defines the assembly of electrical components to be tested. The standard also defines requirements for solar panel manufacturers' quality systems and for qualification and characterization of the electrical components on solar panels.
