Built my first panel.
Built my first panel. Well that is a test panel. It is a little 6 cell panel. I hooked it up directly to my daughter's walkman CD player. As long as the clouds didn't interfere, I could listen to music using Sun power!!!!! One of the cells has cracked horizontally after tabbing. So is that broken cell now wired parallel? Will that cell act as if it were a whole cell?

Depending on the break, and how the tab wire runs, you may be fine.Powerfab top of pole PV mount (2) | Listeroid 6/1 w/st5 gen head | XW6048 inverter/chgr | Iota 48V/15A charger | Morningstar 60A MPPT | 48V, 800A NiFe Battery (in series)| 15, Evergreen 205w "12V" PV array on pole | Midnight ePanel | Grundfos 10 SO5-9 with 3 wire Franklin Electric motor (1/2hp 240V 1ph ) on a timer for 3 hr noontime run - Runs off PV ||

Oh, I forgot to say that it was a horizontal break. The tabbing wires run vertically.Comment
