Also to tackle the clouding or partial shadowing issues, they also come in full-cut and half-cut cells formation of which half cut are better. Best solar panels to consider in India are: - Trina Solar Mono-Perc half cut 500wp (High Cost) - Canadian Solar Mono-Perc half cut 440wp (High Cost) - Anchor by Panasonic Mono-Perc half cut 440wp (High Cost) - Vikram Solar Mono-Perc half cut 400wp (Medium Cost) - Renewsys Solar Mono-Perc (Low cost) (Read more about brands and technology of Solar Panels available in India here along with datasheets)
2. Solar Inverters: Solar inverters are the heart of the 10kW rooftop solar plant. All the inverters largely used in 10kW plants are string inverters, with multi-MPPT input. Nearly all the inverters work with a 98% efficiency but the warranty time period differs with each brand. They also come with lifetime online monitoring facility so that you can monitor the health and generation of your 10kW solar plant from anywhere on earth!

3. Solar Structure: The structure price in a 10kW solar plant is about Rs30,000 to Rs35,000 depending upon the thicknes and the C/S shape of the pillar and purlins. They are generally constructed of GI or painted MS structure wherein the cost of MS painted strucutre is generally higher then GI but they can be customized for each roof and upto extreme heights.
4. Junction Boxes:
There are safety devices which are installed on both the sides of the inverter, ie AC and DC side. This ensures that all the components are isolated from each other incase of any faults. Ensure that the MCB is installed as per your connected load, generally for a 10kW solar plant 32A MCB is used. Along with this, SPD’s and fuses are present in the junction boxes.
One most important and ignored component in junction boxes are the boxes itself. The solar panels has a warrantied life of about 25 years and the junction boxes would be in the full wrath of the weather all this time. The outer box needs to be of good quality to ensure that the components installed inside are protected in all seasons.
