Abstract

L'objet de la présente invention est de permettre à un dispositif de conversion photoélectrique de comprendre plus de panneaux de conversion photoélectrique et de stabiliser la relation de position entre les panneaux de conversion photoélectrique connectés. La présente invention permet d'obtenir un dispositif de conversion photoélectrique qui comprend : un panneau de conversion photoélectrique ayant un ou plusieurs modules de conversion photoélectrique en forme de plaque ; et une partie de connexion qui comprend un élément conducteur flexible et qui est capable de relier mécaniquement et électriquement les modules de conversion photoélectrique et un module de conversion photoélectrique complémentaire d'un panneau de conversion photoélectrique complémentaire l'un à l'autre d'une manière détachable. Par rapport à ce dispositif de conversion photoélectrique, si D1 est l'épaisseur de l'élément conducteur et W1 est la largeur de l'élément conducteur dans une direction qui est perpendiculaire à la fois à la direction de connexion et au sens de l'épaisseur de l'élément conducteur, D1 et W1 satisfont à l'expression relationnelle W1 ≥ 3D1.
