The safety criteria and tests for junction boxes used in photovoltaic (PV) modules are the topic of the standard IEC 62790:2014. The greatest DC voltage that these junction boxes can handle is 1,500 V. Additionally, the standard guarantees that the junction boxes adhere to class II of IEC 61140:2001, a regulation pertaining to electrical safety.
IEC 62790:2014 specifies the building criteria for the junction boxes in addition to the safety requirements. This covers the requirements for the enclosures installed on PV modules that house electronic circuits for converting, regulating, monitoring, or carrying out comparable tasks.
