How to measure the transmittance of photovoltaic panels
JIS R3106 stipulates methods for measuring and calculating visible transmittance, visible reflectance, solar transmittance, solar reflectance, and normal emittance as indices for expressing the properties of flat glass.

PV modules has created a standard material-level test to assess the expected optical performance of encapsulation at its interface with the PV cell. The protocol, colloquially known as the “transmittance standard,” describes the measurement of optical transmittance and subsequent analysis of pλ, YI, and cUV λ E.
Using the individual transmittance calculated for the outer glass pane, PMMA capillary cells, and inner glass pane with the presented mathematical models, the direct to diffuse solar transmittance through the entire TI-system was calculated by evaluating and multiplying each individual transmittance to give a combined transmittance value.
•Optical transmittance (τ) is a key performance characteristic for encapsulation. •Encapsulation discoloration continues to be correlated to performance degradation in recently fielded PV modules.
To calculate the efficiency of a solar collection system, one must know the appropriate solar and infrared spectral properties for the optical components. For flat plate systems one must have the optical.proper ties of the glazing and absorber materials in both the solar (0.3 µm
