Q:Where can I find the info (sites) that clearly gives the anatomy of a solar panel?Likewise, I want to know where can I find (sites) the solar panel that produces 3.75 v? Thank you very much!!!

You've probably seen calculators that have solar cells -- calculators that never need batteries, and in some cases don't even have an off button. As long as you have enough light, they seem to work forever. You may have seen larger solar panels -- on emergency road signs or call boxes, on buoys, even in parking lots to power lights. Although these larger panels aren't as common as solar powered calculators, they're out there, and not that hard to spot if you know where to look. There are solar cell arrays on satellites, where they are used to power the electrical systems. You have probably also been hearing about the solar revolution for the last 20 years -- the idea that one day we will all use free electricity from the sun. This is a seductive promise: On a bright, sunny day, the sun shines approximately ,000 watts of energy per square meter of the planet's surface, and if we could collect all of that energy we could easily power our homes and offices for free.

Q:I know absolutely nothing about electronics but have a lot of money. I am thinking of buying the Sunforce 3730 30W monocrystalline solar panel (the best I could find that was that size or smaller). What would be a good battery to go with it? I am thinking of buying a 2V Concorde Sun Xtender (again, the best I could find). But how many batteries will I need? I want enough batteries that it would take the solar panel 2 days to completely charge them from empty (bearing in mind the unavoidable inefficiencies like cloudiness/changing sun angles). Also, what other stuff would I need, like I hear something about a quot;charge controllerquot;? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

How many batteries you will need depends on what you are planning to do with them which you did not mention? Sunforce makes a 30 amp charge controller part no. 60033

Q:I want to know that if I put solar panels in space if Pluto can recieve energy for iPods and television

Not really. Solar panels operate by sunlight knocking electrons off atoms, and there has to be a particular minimum of light in order to maintain a steady stream of electricity. Beyond Mars, we equip our probes with batteries and generators - because the sunlight at that distance is too weak to generate the electricity needed - so... no. Solar panels on Pluto won't charge anything....

Q:How do solar panels impact the local job market?

Solar panels can have a positive impact on the local job market by creating new employment opportunities. The installation and maintenance of solar panels require skilled workers, thus generating jobs in the renewable energy sector. Additionally, the growth of solar energy can stimulate the development of related industries, such as manufacturing and research, further boosting employment prospects in the local area.

Q:I want to install a solar panel system and our power grid can't work in reverse(so it get its electricity from us). My question is how do you prevent electricity from our panel to go to the grid without disconnecting the grid? How can we also use the grid and the panel at the same time when the panel are not creating enough power?PS dont say ask an electrician

If you are grid-tied, then a standard solar electric system will always feed back into the grid if you are not utilizing more power in your home than is being generated by the solar panels and inverter system. It is possible that a grid isolation device designed to prevent direct back feeding is available, but haven't heard of one in common use. New laws in most areas of the US are now mandating that utilities allow grid-tied alternative energy systems. Double-check you local laws. Sometimes you can't take the utilities word for truth--most will automatically say 'no' and will only relent when you show up with the law in hand. Unfortunately, some utilities have figured out another way to shut down alternative energy pioneers--they demand multimillion dollar insurance policies covering damage that their equipment could sustain from your little PV system. Technically, they are still in compliance with the law, they just make it impossible for a homeowner to meet their requirements. If you are getting the runaround, go to your state representative for help. It's amazing how contrite those utility people can be when a state senator (or even US Senator) has just sent a letter asking them why they are stonewalling a law-abiding and well-meaning citizen. Good luck, and don't give up!

Q:What is the principle of solar panels work?

The sun is irradiated on the semiconductor p-n junction to form a new hole-electron pair. Under the action of the p-n junction electric field, the holes flow from the n region to the p region. The electrons flow from the p region to the n region, and the current is formed after the circuit is turned on. This is the photoelectric effect of the working principle of solar cells.

Q:my pool guy cleaned the filter and replaced the DE, but now my roof solar panels have started leaking. how do i stop the leak? does backwashing help in any way?

bypass the whole panel if you can ( one individual panel of several ) , or bypass that loop in that panel - car part rubber hose clamps

Q:I made three 36 solar cell (3x6 .5V 3.5A) panel and had it hooked a up to an old car inverter. I was on line looking for a cheap grid tied inverter. I came across the Enphase micro inverter and was wondering if i could use one of those. Will it work?

Have okorder . It might truly benefit anyone!

Q:Can solar panels be used to power a farm?

Yes, solar panels can be used to power a farm. They can generate electricity from sunlight, which can be utilized to operate various farming activities such as irrigation systems, lighting, and machinery. Solar power offers a sustainable and renewable energy solution for farms, reducing dependence on traditional fossil fuel-based electricity and potentially reducing operating costs.

Q:please no dumb answers and list where you got the info.Also how much does it cost to install solar panels for a regular sized house?

Short version is that the sunlight knocks electrons loose from a semiconductor panel, and those loose electrons generate an electrical current. The solar panels have lots of cells arranged in series parallel to get to a higher voltage (usually 2 or 24 volts) and current. This is sent to charge batteries under the control of a charge controller. The voltage from the batteries is sent to an inverter that converts the 2/24 volts to 20/240 VAC for household usage. .
