Technical FAQs 4

What is a Grade B solar panel?

Grade B solar panels have visual defects but meet performance specifications. These solar panels are less common than grade A solar panels but are typically available from manufacturers upon request. Most manufacturers keep these panels for testing purposes but sell them with warranties like grade A solar panels.

Do grade B solar panels affect performance?

Grade B solar panels have some visual defects that do not affect performance. Grade B naturally falls below grade A in this grading system. So how does Grade B stack up against the other grades? Grade A solar panels are entirely free of defects. Grade B has some visual flaws but still meets performance standards.

Do you sell grade B solar panels?

Most manufacturers and distributors only sell grade A and B solar panels, scrapping C solar panels and recycling D solar panels. A’s are typically the most advertised and sold. However, some do sell grade B solar panels upon request.

Are Grade A solar panels a good choice?

Ultimately, it comes down to this: Grade A solar panels have no visual defects and meet performance standards. Grade B solar panels have some visible defects but meet performance standards. Grade C solar panels have visual defects and do not meet performance standards. Grade D solar panels are unusable, and entirely broken.
