FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Techni ca l S pe cif i cat i ons,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee intereste d
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparat ory w ork. In t ern at i on al , go vern me nt al a n d n on -
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collabo rat es cl o sel y
w ith the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance w i t h co nd i ti o ns d et ermi n e d b y
agreement between the tw o organizations.
2) The f ormal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committ ee h as r ep resen ta ti o n f ro m a l l
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accep te d b y IEC Na t i o n a l
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the tech ni cal c on te nt of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsi b l e f o r t he w a y in w hich they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake t o a pp l y IEC Pu b l i c a ti o ns
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and r eg io na l p ublications. Any divergence
betw een any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies pro vid e c onf o rmi ty
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not r esp onsi b l e f o r a ny
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) A ll users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual e xpe rts a n d
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage o r
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for c osts ( i ncl ud i ng l e ga l f ees) a n d
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or rel i a nce u p on , t h is IEC Pu b l i c a t i on o r a ny o t he r IEC
Publications.
8) A ttention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced p ub l i cat i ons i s
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) A ttention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publicatio n ma y be t he su bj ect of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. In
exceptional circumstances, a technical committee may propose the publication of a Techni c al
Specification when
• the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an Internatio n a l S t a n d a r d ,
despite repeated efforts, or
• the subject is still under technical development or where, for any other reason, there is the
future but no immediate possibility of an agreement on an International Standard.
Technical Specification are subject to review within three years of publication to decide
whether they can be transformed into International Standards.
IEC TS 62257-7-4, which is a Technical Specification, has been prepar ed by IE C t ec hni c al
committee 82: Solar photovoltaic energy systems.

The text of this Technical Specification is based on the following documents:
Draf t TS Report on voting
82/1477/DTS 82/1545A/RVDTS
Full information on the voting for the approval of this Technical Specification can be found i n
the report on voting indicated in the above table.
This part of IEC 62257 is to be used in conjunction with IEC 62257 (all parts).
A list of all parts in the IEC 62257 series, published under the general title Recommendations
for renewable energy and hybrid systems for rural electrification, can be found on the IEC
website.
Future standards in this series will carry the new general title as cited above. Titles of existing
standards in this series will be updated at the time of the next edition.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related t o
the specific document. At this date, the document will be
• transformed into an International standard,
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or amended.
A bilingual version of this publication may be issued at a later date.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR RENEWABLE ENERGY
AND HYBRID SYSTEMS FOR RURAL ELECTRIFICATION –
Part 7-4: Generators – Integration of solar w ith other forms
of pow er generation w ithin hybrid power systems
1 Scope
This part of IEC 62257, which is a technical specification, specifies the design and
implementation of hybrid off-grid solar systems, where solar energy provides energy to a l o a d
in conjunction with other sources of energy. Such sy stems may or may not include an energy
storage system. There are a variety of different system architectures and appl i c at ions , and
many ways in which these energy sources can be combined. Th i s doc um ent di s t inguis hes
between different sorts of hybrid system applications and gives guidance on t he des i gn and
integration of these systems.
It applies to single-phase and three-phase applications, and it covers situations where gri d i s
available as an additional source of power for charging batteries and maintaining system
reliability, but this document does not cover situations in which energy is fed back into a utility
grid, although such systems may incidentally possess this function.
