How are Panels Connected to an Electrical System?
Each panel comes with 8 ft. of tinned wire with a 2-pin SAE-connector and is packaged with a 2 ft fused battery cable. An extension cable of 10 feet is also available. Typically the solar panel is connected directly to the battery. It can also be connected to any point on the electrical system where 12 volt is present. If a charge controller is used, it is placed in the line between the solar panel and the battery.
Bypass diodes are connected across each cell, allowing the modules to produce power even when partially shaded. Blocking diodes are included within each potted junction box (edge connector) to prevent battery discharge into the module.
The cell assembly is sealed in flexible an durable weather resistant polymers that provide longlife and high reliability.
