Solar simulators allow for the accurate measurement of the conversion of light to electrical current by solar photovoltaic cells, modules, and panels under controlled conditions. There are two basic types of solar simulator: continuous and pulsed. Continuous simulators provide a steady illumination for a longer period of time; pulsed apply a flash type illumination of shorter duration. Both types of solar simulators are classified as A, B, or C simulators according to their ability to meet IEC and ASTM standards for spectral content, spatial uniformity and temporal stability.
