<p>In order to detect conductor breaks, it is suggested that, in a first embodiment, a tuning circuit (15) with a dielectric constant be inductively coupled with a conductive loop located between two photovoltaic cells adjacent to each other in the solar module. The inductive coupling of the conductive loop (11) with the tuning circuit (15) causes the characteristics of the latter to change in the event of conductor breaks in the conductive loop (11). Such conductor breaks can be detected and displayed due to a measured value converter (19). In a second embodiment, the coupling elements are designed as printed circuits forming with the photovoltaic cells in the solar module an efficient capacitor. The changes occuring with the capacitor, resulting from conductor breaks and detectable as compared with conductors in good state, can be assessed for the purpose of detecting such breaks.</p> |
