TUV SUD is a globally recognized testing, inspection and certification agency, and the designation should further showcase JA's name brand recognition and make our products quality more reputable."
Dr. Huang continued, "Our module testing laboratory plays a pivotal role in product quality control and the introduction of new materials and products at JA. This CTF lab qualification is another testimony of JA Solar's outstanding product quality control."
Mr. Hailiang Xu, Chief PV Inspector of the TUV SUD Greater China Region, commented, "The CTF lab qualification represents the third upgrade of a JA lab in TUV SUD. Each upgrade recognizes JA's lab management and testing capabilities, and lab compliance with IECEE/CB regulation.
