Photovoltaic system the outer edge. Electrically connected and mounted on a supporting structure, solar modules build a string of modules, often called solar panel. A solar array consists of one or many such panels. A photovoltaic array, or solar array, is a linked collection of solar modules. The power that one module can produce is seldom enough to meet requirements of a home or a business, so the modules are linked together to form an array. Most PV arrays use an inverter to convert the DC power produced by the modules into alternating current that can power lights, motors, and other loads.
G-module G-module In mathematics, given a group "G", a "G"-module is an abelian group "M" on which "G" acts compatibly with the abelian group structure on "M". This widely applicable notion generalizes that of a representation of "G". Group (co)homology provides an important set of tools for studying general "G"-modules. The term "G"-module is also used for the more general notion of an "R"-module on which "G" acts linearly (i.e. as a group of "R"-module automorphisms). Let "G" be a group. A left "G"-module consists of an abelian group "M" together with a left group action ρ : "G"×"M" → "M"
