Solar Module

No. Stepping on solar panels, walking over it is not advisable. It leads to pressure on these solar panels, exposing it to the threat of developing micro cracks. The outer surface of solar panels are made up of solar glass which cannot withstand more than its threshold pressure. While these glasses are made to withstand high pressure rain and other weather related threats but it cannot withstand other external threats.

The efficiency of solar cells (or solar modules at large) means the capacity of the item to capture the sunlight falling onto it and convert it into electrician energy. It is calculated by the total electrical output of the solar cells, divided by the incident solar power input under standard test conditions. The figures are then multiplied by 100. Different type of solar cells produce different level of efficiency based on the technologies used. For example mono-PERC cells are more efficient than polycrystalline cells. Similarly, TOPCon cells are more efficient than mono-PERC cells.
