Zusammenfassung:Module (30) of interconnected rectangular photovoltaic cells (2) comprises strip (14) for connecting cells (2) into series strings. The strip (14) comprises tabs (21) spaced as collector pads (7) on a cell (2) to facilitate connection thereto and a bus portion (20) for connection to the opposite surface (8) of an adjacent cell (2 min ). The strip (14) is coated on both sides with dielectric lamina (26, 27) to prevent short circuiting between opposite surface (4, 8) of the same cell (2) when cell spacing is extremely close. Apparatus and method for automated manufacture of cell arrays employing this interconnect are also disclosed.
