Solar Panel Micro-Crack Detection After Storm: A Safe Testing Guide
Solar panel micro-crack detection after storm damage requires more than a visual inspection. Shut down and secure the system, compare post-storm production with a reliable baseline, screen strings with I-V testing or infrared thermography, and use electroluminescence (EL) imaging to confirm and locate latent cell fractures. Only qualified solar technicians should test energized rooftop equipment. […]
