Solar panels can be composed by 60 or 72 cells each.
Difference between 60 and 72 cell solar panels.
When it comes to dimensions 60 cell panels are usually built six cells wide and ten cells tall.
If that seems too obvious i promise you.
Note that not all microinverters will support 72 cell solar panels so 60 cell is still the only option in some cases mostly for home systems.
The most notable difference is that 72 cell solar panels have just 12 cells more.
8 6 2018 the difference between 60 cell and 72 cell solar panels comes down to their size.
The 60 cell panels are usually 1 65m tall and weight around 20kg while the 72 cell are much taller at 1 95m and weigh 28kg.
Well then what s the difference.
Most 72 cell panels still weigh less than the 50 lb restriction set by osha so can be carried by one person although their size can make it awkward to handle alone.
The difference between 60 cell and 72 cell solar panels is simple.
Since 72 cell modules have 12 more cells they are thus larger by about a foot.
72 cell panels are 12 taller and contain 12 more solar cells.
Are they more powerful.
72 cell solar panels have more photovoltaic cells therefore they are larger than 60 cell panels.
That s pretty much all there is to it.
