That is connecting solar panels in series increases the voltage of the system, so two panels connected in series will produce double the voltage as compared to just one panel but while the voltages add up, the amperage of each panel stays the same, that is currents in series do not add up.
Series connected solar panels are called a string, thus the use of the word “string” means that the panels are connected in series. Note that series strings of PV panels can be connected in parallel to increase the total current and therefore more power output. Here ALL the solar PV panels are of the same type and power rating.
Solar cells can be connected in series to increase the output voltage, shown in Figure 1. Total voltage is equal to the sum of individual voltages. Solar cells in series are termed string. Because solar cells are not perfectly identical, the total current flowing through a string is equal to the lowest value of the solar cell.
While individual solar cells can be interconnected together within a single PV panel, solar photovoltaic panels can themselves be connected together in series and/or parallel combinations to form an array increasing the total available power output for a particular solar application compared to a single panel.
Our solar power systems and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
