• A photovoltaic array – solar array,
is a collection of photovoltaic (PV)
What is modules or solar panels that are
interconnected to generate
Photovoltaic electricity from sunlight.
• These modules consist of multiple
Array solar cells that convert sunlight
directly into electricity through the
process of photovoltaic effect.
Material • The PV modules within the array are
made up of semiconductor materials.
used in Such as silicon – which has unique
properties that enable them to
Photovoltaic generate electricity when exposed to
sunlight.
• These materials have two layers: a
positively charged layer and a
negatively charged layer.
• In the semi conductor When photons
from the sunlight strike the solar
cells, they knock electrons loose
from their atoms, creating an electric

How does current.

current • This current is then collected and


channeled through an inverter.

generated • The inverter then converts it into


usable alternating current (AC)
electricity for powering homes,
businesses, or other electrical
devices.
Why we • Individual solar cells vary in size
from about 1 cm to about 10 cm
across. A cell of this size can only
used produce 1 or 2 watts, which isn't
enough power for most

applications. To increase power
output, cells are electrically
connected into a module. Modules

and arrays are connected to form an array. The


term "array" refers to the entire
generating plant, whether it is made
up of one or several thousand
modules.

terminals are shorted,
the output voltage is 0 V.

They work when the module is


shaded as the PV cell act as
