Can people stand on solar panels?

Can people stand on solar panels? This question should be answered from the following points.

The first thing to start with is what the solar panel is made of. We've talked about the internal structure of the solar panel: Surface material (PET/ETFE/ glass) +EVA+ battery +EVA+ back material (PCB/PET/TPT), if the surface material is PET/ETFE, then the theory and practice are not to stand, because its overall thickness can only reach 2.0mm-2.5mm, as long as one stand on it, The batteries in there will go black in no time.

If it is made of glass surface material, if it is too small, it will definitely step on it, and the glass will be scratched and broken (it can be imagined that the effect after the phone is stepped on will definitely break the screen).

Solar panels with large glass surface and solar cable in china can theoretically be operated by people, or by professional people. Generally, glass solar panels are installed on RVs, roofs and other places. If it is to climb, it will be easier to fall, and the glass surface is relatively smooth. Secondly, if you do not wear professional shoes or protection, the glass surface is easy to scratch, the transmittance of the solar panel will be affected, thus affecting the power generation efficiency of the solar panel. And if the person is too heavy, it may cause the solar cells to crack and fire.

Bottom line: Glass solar panels are theoretically possible, and professionals can do it. But also to calculate the force of the solar panel, control the weight and other aspects.
