Principle

The maximum utilisable power of a solar cell is dependent on the
intensity of the incident light. Characteristic current-voltage
curves are prepared under various illuminations.

Benefits


No additional cable connections between the building blocks needed - clear arragned and quick setup

Contact saftey due to puzzle blocks system

Corrosion-free gold plated contacts

Doubled earning sucess: Electric circuit diagram on top, real components can be seen unterside



Tasks

How does a load change the current and voltage of a solar
cell?

Load a solar cell with a variable resistor. Note the values of
the current and voltage at various values of the loading
resistance.
