Then, use Figure 13~Figure 15, the various variation of the connection status between the battery pack 40 in this execution mode are explained.Figure 13~Figure 15 is an approximate three-dimensional map of representing the connection status between the battery pack 40 from rear side.
Example shown in Figure 13 is connected in the big width connecting line 42 of negative electrode or is connected in the lower portion that anodal big width connecting line 43 is disposed at solar battery cell 11, with the jointing sheet 16 with the lead-in wire of the same width of tab.When connecting between the battery pack 40, the connecting wiring 44 that an end is connected with bypass diode disposes similarly.Upside at connecting wiring 44 is connected between the battery pack 40 in the outside by the end of solar battery cell 11, disposes the connecting wiring 45 that an end is connected with bypass diode simultaneously.
Example shown in Figure 14 is connected in the big width connecting line 42 of negative electrode or is connected in the lower portion that anodal big width connecting line 43 is disposed at solar battery cell 11.And tab 16 is connected in the outside of solar battery cell 11, and the wiring that is provided with in the position of leaving from tab 16 is connected with connecting wiring 42,43.When connecting between the battery pack 40, the connecting wiring 44 that an end is connected with bypass diode disposes similarly.
Example shown in Figure 15 is connected in the big width connecting line 42 of negative electrode or is connected in the lower portion that anodal connecting line 43 is disposed at solar battery cell 11.Tab 16 is connected in the outside of solar battery cell 11, and the wiring of configuration is connected with connecting wiring 42 between the tab 16.When connecting between the battery pack 40, the connecting line 44 that an end is connected with bypass diode disposes similarly.
Then, use Figure 16~Figure 19, the connecting wiring and the method for attachment of the solar battery cell end of the tab 16 of the usefulness that is connected in series at the back side in the execution mode of the present invention are explained.
In example shown in Figure 16, extend the two connection from connecting line 42 (43) in the end of solar battery cell 11 with the connecting line of (units in series is connected usefulness) the tab 16 same width that extend from the end of solar battery cell 11.
Example shown in Figure 17, the connecting line that covers the width of 2 tabs 16 extends from connecting wiring 42 (43), in then the two connection of the end of solar battery cell 11.
Example shown in Figure 180; For all being the connecting line of same width until end extended spot in the example shown in Figure 17 from solar battery cell 11; And this shown in Figure 180 be that only end exposed portions serve and the tab 16 from solar battery cell 11 has same width.Other is all same as shown in Figure 17.
