NOTES
*
These data represent the performance of typical modules as measured
at their output cable terminations, and do not include the effect of
such additional equipment as diodes. The data are based on measurements
made in a solar simulator at Standard Test Conditions (STC), which are:
Illumination of 1 kW/m
2
(1 sun) at spectral distribution of AM 1.5
Cell temperature of 25oC or as otherwise specified (on curves).
Operating characteristics in sunlight may differ slightly.
