Any shadowing of cells resulting from the projection of any object or from the accumulation of dirt or debris
can result in reverse voltage. The junction box contains three bypass diodes to avoid this problem.
The reverse polarization of a cell can lead to consuming the energy produced by the rest of the system.
The dissipation of this energy can lead to dangerous overheating and affect the cell. Damage can include,
but is not limited to, the release of its anti-reflection cap, the perforation of the P-N union or the breakage of
the soldering.
Bypass diodes have the capacity to run a current larger than the maximum produced by the module and
block the reverse current generated by the system itself to avoid overheating.
Diode Characteristics
The 6T and 7T2 Series contain three by-pass diodes each, the 9T6 contain four by-pass diodes, with the
following characteristics:
