Bypass diodes
Each junction box contains a bypass diode wired in parallel with the PV cell strings. In
case of partial shading, the diodes bypass the current generated by the unshaded cells,
thereby limiting the Product heating and performance losses. Bypass diodes are not
overcurrent protection devices. In the event of a known or suspected diode failure,
installers or main-tenance providers should contact the supplier.
