Is there a Diode in the Junction Box on the back of the Solar Panel?

The conventional diode in the junction box is a by-pass diode, which is mainly to prevent the damage of the solar panel caused by the hot spot effect caused by partial shading; Bypass diodes are installed for panels greater than or equal to 75W, and

Why does the Diode get Damaged?

(1) When multiple groups are used in parallel, one group of wires is connected in reverse, resulting in diode reverse breakdown. (2) Under repeated shading in a short period - no shielding, the reverse, and forward conversion lead to thermal breakdow

Introduction to the wiring and connection styles of the panel.

A solar panel can come in several ways. 1.) Without any cables attached to the junction box. 2.) With standard 0.9m thick cables with bare-end cables. 3.) With standard 0.9m thick cables with common solar panel connectors. 4.) With standard 0.9m thic

What is the difference between panels with and without cables?
