CE Marking
Mandatory conformity marking for solar modules sold in the European Economic Area.
Detailed Explanation
CE marking indicates compliance with EU safety, health, and environmental protection directives. For solar modules, CE is typically granted when IEC 61215 and IEC 61730 requirements are met. It is a legal requirement to sell in the EEA. Self-declared by manufacturers, meaning quality varies. UK has since Brexit transitioned to UKCA marking as an equivalent.
