Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a chip diode photovoltaic junction box, belonging to the field of photovoltaic technology. Background Technology

[0002] A solar junction box is a connector that sits between the solar cell array (composed of solar cell modules) and the solar charging control device, providing users with a combined connection solution for solar panels. Double-glass solar modules consist of two layers of glass on opposite sides and solar cells located between the glass layers. Glass has better insulation than a backsheet, allowing double-glass modules to withstand higher system voltages and offering significant advantages in abrasion resistance, making them suitable for photovoltaic power plants in areas with high levels of acid rain or salt spray. Due to its different structure from backsheet solar modules, it generally uses a separate junction box.
