API field

Cell strings in parallel

Parallel cell strings inside the module

What it is

The number of cell strings connected in parallel inside the module: 1 for a standard module and 2 for a twin half-cell layout. The one-diode model works on the module's own currents, which already include the parallel strings, so it does not use this count.

Typical values and how to get it

From the datasheet or the PAN file. If not given: 1. The engine does not read this value yet (a pending decision on the roadmap).
