Abstract

In this paper the performances of photovoltaic (PV) panels has been analysed, for different connections of PV cells, by using the four-terminal theory and Brune´s conditions of circuit interconnection. A LabView and Matlab applications have been implemented to prove the theoretical models and to obtain the equivalent parameters of PV cells´ connections. The examples presented have shown the comparisons between all the typical connections of PV cells functioning in different conditions of solar insolation.
