Abstract

A photovoltaic panel includes a primary electrode also to each connection tab. One or more ancillary electrodes is(are) also electrically connected to a tab. Each ancillary electrode is configured to exhibit an ampacity determined with respect to a predetermined ampacity threshold. The predetermined ampacity threshold is defined in accordance with the fabrication technology of the photo-conversion material used to make the photovoltaic cells present in the module. Both a primary electrode and any ancillary electrode(s) connected thereto are directly connectible to and simultaneously capable of transmitting power to a primary or an ancillary electrode on another panel.
