Principle
The maximum utilisable power of a solar cell is dependent on the intensity of the incident light. Characteristic current-voltage curves are prepared under various illuminations.
Benefits
- No additional cable connections between the building blocks needed - clear arragned and quick setup
- Contact saftey due to puzzle blocks system
- Corrosion-free gold plated contacts
- Doubled earning sucess: Electric circuit diagram on top, real components can be seen unterside
Tasks
How does a load change the current and voltage of a solar cell?
Load a solar cell with a variable resistor. Note the values of the current and voltage at various values of the loading resistance.
