[0002] With the growing demand for clean energy worldwide, the photovoltaic industry, as an important part of the renewable energy field, has developed rapidly in recent years. Solar photovoltaic power generation has the advantages of being clean, renewable and widely distributed, and is considered one of the important solutions to energy crisis and environmental pollution problems. Under the dual driving of policy support and market demand, the construction scale of photovoltaic power stations is continuously expanding, from large-scale ground centralized photovoltaic power stations to distributed photovoltaic power generation systems, such as industrial and commercial roof and residential roof, which have widely applied photovoltaic modules.

The traditional lap joint type photovoltaic module connecting structure is prone to looseness due to external environmental factors during long-term use. Since photovoltaic modules are usually installed outdoors, they will face various weather conditions such as strong winds, heavy rains and earthquakes. The traditional connecting structure may not have fully considered these external force factors in design, resulting in insufficient connection strength at the lap joint part. The contact area of the narrow edge lap joint method is small, and under the action of wind force, the modules are prone to relative displacement, thereby affecting the stability and safety of the entire photovoltaic system.

At the same time, the traditional connecting structure lacks effective monitoring means, making it difficult to real-time understand the connection state and electrical performance of the components, which is not conducive to timely discovering and solving potential problems.
