Leslie Said:

what is the schematic symbol for a solar panel/cell?

We Answered:

I would just use a box with a + and - on it for the panel, but I guess if you really wanted to, you could use a photodiode symbol, sort of like an LED, but with the arrows symbolizing the light rays going in rather than out.

Our plans are in

and look for a .pdf file called "Plans (read only)"

Curtis Said:

Comparing the energy conversion rates of solar cell ang solar panel?

We Answered:

u do ask the people who set this up for u
or in the shop from where u bought

Willie Said:

how can i make my own solar cell or panel?

We Answered:

for this u need special grade pure silicon.pieces of almost 2 square cm need to be linked by means of silver in order to prevent loss of energy.this arrangement should be erected in a place which receives maximum sunlight.

Hugh Said:

What are the electrons attracted to when detached from the silicon atoms in a solar panel (or solar cell)?

We Answered:

they ARE electrons

if this isnt your answer then plz specify

Wendy Said:

what is the difference between a solar cell and a solar panel?

We Answered:

Each cell generates about 0.5 Volts. To get more voltage, the cells are connected in series. To get more current, more cells are added in parallel. A Solar Panel is the result.
