Abstract
PV power systems for utilities require the use of large area solar modules which must be able to operate with high array nominal voltage. The dimensions of the modules can be considerably increased using standard production technology but the necessity to reduce the installation costs force to introduce a new wiring method between modules. Using a suitable disposition of cells interconnection inside the module the electric strength of the component can increase over 10000 V.The paper indicates some rules for the design of large power modules to be used in central power stations by utilities.
