In this work, the electrical properties of different triple cation compositions with the formula Cs0.05FA1−XMAXPb(I1−XBrX)3 have been analyzed using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. As triple cation perovskites are so far the most stable perovskites, and stability is the main challenge in order to have this technology in the market; we look for the most stable combination of cations to overcome this challenge. The perovskite solar cells were subjected to ambient conditions to compare their results in terms of ambient degradation. We analyzed the causes and effects of ambient degradation mechanisms on the devices. Electrochemical processes such as ion movement, a combination of radiative recombination and non radiativere combination, and charge transport were detected. The MA percentage decrease in the composition of triple cation perovskites, APbX3 produces an improvement in the stability and durability of perovskite solar cells. This enhancement is due to the reduction of the amount of ion vacancies helping to reduce the degradation in the device by avoiding the accumulation of defects.
