 >The Photovoltaic Systems in person training program is intended to give p
 articipants a fundamental knowledge and understanding of the electrical as
 pects of photovoltaic systems\, commonly referred to as Solar Power Genera
 tion Systems.&nbsp\; This program will include a brief history of photovol
 taic cells and systems and discuss how photovoltaic power contributes to t
 he electric grid. The program will include a review of the fundamentals of
  electricity and discuss how they are applied within a solar array.&nbsp\;
  The various components of a photovoltaic system will be presented and the
  interaction of the various components in a cell\, module\, and array will
  be explained as it relates the power generating function&nbsp\; of the ov
 erall photovoltaic system. Safety protocols relevant to the investigation 
 of fires involving photovoltaic systems will be introduced\, and common fa
 ilures in these systems will also be identified.&nbsp\; Case studies will 
 be utilized as appropriate to illustrate the practical application of the 
 information presented in this course.</div>\n<div><br />\n</div>\n<div>At 
 the end of this program\, the participant should be able to:</div>\n<div>&
 bull\; Describe the general use of photovoltaics</div>\n<div>&bull\; Expla
 in solar radiation and its relationship to photovoltaics</div>\n<div>&bull
 \; Explain basic electricity</div>\n<div>&bull\; Explain sources and diode
 s</div>\n<div>&bull\; Review and explain residential and light commercial 
 electrical services</div>\n<div>&bull\; Explain photovoltaic cells\, modul
 es\, and arrays\, including the equivalent circuit of a photovoltaic cell<
 /div>\n<div>&bull\; Explain shading and its effect on photovoltaic systems
 </div>\n<div>&bull\; Discuss energy storage in photovoltaic systems</div>\
 n<div>&bull\; Explain the photovoltaic balance of system components</div>\
 n<div>&bull\; Discuss the National Electrical Code as it relates to photov
 oltaics</div>\n<div>&bull\; Explain electrical hazards in photovoltaic cel
 ls and systems</div>\n<div>&bull\; Discuss potential failure modes in phot
 ovoltaic cells and systems.</div>\n<div>&bull\; Discuss standards organiza
 tions that generate standards applicable to photovoltaics</div>\n<div><br
