Assembly solar cell step by step video

How do I connect solar cells?

To connect those strings of solar cells, I used what is called a bus wire. The bus wire goes at the end of the strings to create one long string, however, curled up in a way like a snake. Again, for step 2, I recommend you watch the full video (Part 3) to understand how to work with the solar cells and how to check the voltage/current.

How to make a solar cell?

In order to make your own solar cell, you will need a collection of materials that you can source from basic electronic components stores or online. The primary material for your solar cell is silicon. It’s an abundant, non-toxic element that forms a great base for converting solar energy.

How to assemble a solar panel?

So, except plates, you also need some tin, iron and a soldering pencil. Take a notice: it's better not to use tin overmuch. Make sure joints are soldered proper and good. After all needed details have been prepared, you can start to assemble your solar panel. After working soldering spots with a special pencil, use the iron to apply tin carefully.

How do I make a solar cell template?

First, I want to make a template for my solar cells. What I used was a spare piece of regular plywood, a piece of regular cardboard the size of a solar cell, some tile spacers, and a staple gun to create my template. I wanted to use the tile spacers to help keep my solar cells even as seen in Part 1 of the video.

How does a solar cell work?

These wafers form the foundation of your solar cell. Doping involves adding a tiny amount of an element to the silicon to change its properties. Traditionally, boron and phosphorous are incorporated into the silicon to form the P/N junction necessary for a solar cell to function.

How to make solar panels in a solar plant?

Step-by-Step Guide on Solar Panel Manufacturing Process in a Solar Plant. Sand → Silicon → Wafer → Photovoltaic Cell → Solar Panel. Complete solar panel manufacturing process – from raw materials to a fully functional solar panel.
