EL Testing
About the Service
Electroluminescence (EL) testing is one of the most advanced and reliable methods for assessing the true condition of solar panels. Unlike visual inspections or thermal imaging, EL testing allows us to see beneath the surface of a module to detect hidden defects that are invisible to the naked eye.
By applying a current to the panel and capturing the emitted light, we can identify microcracks, cell damage, transport or installation defects, and early signs of degradation. This makes EL testing invaluable for insurers, asset owners, and businesses that rely on accurate, insurer-ready reporting.
Whether panels have been exposed to storm damage, mishandling during installation, or simply need a routine check for performance degradation, our EL testing reports deliver clear, actionable insights backed by industry-leading imaging technology.
