We sell 'Grade A' panels only

  In a series circuit, the current through each of the components is the same, and the voltage across the circuit is the sum of the voltages across each component. In a series circuit the voltage increases while the amperage stays the same. The same current flows through each part of a series circuit. The total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of individual resistances.

  In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component.  In a parallel circuit the voltage stays the same while the amperage increases. A parallel circuit has two or more paths for current to flow through. Voltage is the same across each component of the parallel circuit. The sum of the currents through each path is equal to the total current that flows from the source. 

A series-parallel circuit is a combination of the two different types of circuit configurations. The rules of series and parallel circuits must be applied selectively to circuits containing both types of interconnections. If we are able to identify which parts of the circuit are series and which parts are parallel, we can analyze it in stages, approaching each part one at a time, using the appropriate rules to determine the relationships of voltage, current, and resistance. 

Solar water heaters use the heat from sun to heat water in the collectors and store the hot water in a thermal tank for later use.

Photovoltaics popularly known as solar panels converts the ultra-violet light from the sun to raw Direct Current. This DC power can be utilized as a charging source for batteries or converted to AC power for more widespread applications.
