This standard is developed in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009 Directives for standardization—Part 1: Structure and drafting of standards. This standard was proposed by and is under the jurisdiction of China Electrical Equipment Industry Association. This standard is issued for the first time. Technical requirement and test method of the floating body of floating PV system 1 Scope This standard specifies the environmental conditions, technical requirements, test methods, inspection items and classification of the floating body of floating PV system. This standard is applicable to floating bodies, including materials and bolts, which are produced by using medium (high) density polyethylene as the main raw material as well as additives. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
