#shingled

This shingled cottage was designed by Maybeck in 1902 for UC Berkeley English professor Hiram Kellogg. It was originally located on Regent Street in Berkeley but was moved - apparently in sections - to nearby Linden Avenue. The interior of the unfinished redwood creates a feeling of rusticity that is enhanced by an adjacent fig arbor, a highbacked settle near the entry, and symmetrical gabled ceilings for both of the upstairs bedrooms.

The ELERIX Shingled Solar Panels - The Technology Design 

In previous postings, GWL/Team has provided basic details about the ELERIX Shingled panels technology

There are additional key benefits of the Shingled panel technology. 

Parallel flow of the electric energy. With standard solar panels, all solar cells are connected in series. With the shingled panels, each section is based on parallel connection of multiple cells. With parallel connection, the current flowing in each branch is smaller. The smaller current means lower losses due to the resistance of the connection, busbars, and the resistance of the cells. 

Resistant to partial shielding. With standard FV panels, the shielding of any cell will decrees the total output of the whole panel. With the shingled panels, the partial shielding (by the shadows) will influence only the cells in the sale section. The result is the improved solar yield when panels are partially shielded. 

The Elerix Shingled panels technology – seamless soldering

Shingled module is the highest power and efficiency you can get with traditional, undoped crystalline silicon. True shingled modules have no visible busbars and solar cells are cut into five or six strips and connected with an electrically conductive adhesive

Shingled technology is based on overlapping connection with “seamless soldering” to eliminate gaps between cells. The seamless soldering creates a ribbon that connects the half-cut cells in the overlapping area and allows for the close packing of cells.

Details about the Elerix Shingled panels technology

Elerix Shingled solar panels (shingled modules) contain solar cells cut into strips that overlap inside the framed module. Intercell gaps are removed, and more silicon cells can be crammed into one module, increasing power output and module efficiency.

Elerix Shingled modules use an electrically conductive adhesive in between the top of one cell strip and the bottom of another strip. That’s what binds them electrically and mechanically connects them into their longer strings.
