Solar panel Solar panel Photovoltaic solar panels absorb sunlight as a source of energy to generate electricity. A photovoltaic (PV) module is a packaged, connected assembly of typically 6x10 photovoltaic solar cells. Photovoltaic modules constitute the photovoltaic array of a photovoltaic system that generates and supplies solar electricity in commercial and residential applications. Each module is rated by its DC output power under standard test conditions (STC), and typically ranges from 100 to 365 Watts (W). The efficiency of a module determines the area of a module given the same rated output an 8% efficient 230 W module will have twice the
Injective module Injective module In mathematics, especially in the area of abstract algebra known as module theory, an injective module is a module "Q" that shares certain desirable properties with the Z-module Q of all rational numbers. Specifically, if "Q" is a submodule of some other module, then it is already a direct summand of that module; also, given a submodule of a module "Y", then any module homomorphism from this submodule to "Q" can be extended to a homomorphism from all of "Y" to "Q". This concept is dual to that of projective modules. Injective modules were introduced in and are
