Solar tapes are used in PV modules in two forms: interconnecting strips or sinks and PV busbars, both of which are required in a typical silicon solar cell, where the PV interconnecting strips are soldered directly to the silicon crystals to connect the solar cells in the solar panel to each other. The PV busbar is a hot-dipped tinned copper conductor installed around the perimeter of the solar panel, and the PV busbar connects the interconnection strips to the junction box. Thin film solar panels generally only require a busbar.
