Solar-cell module and method for its installation

摘要

A solar-cell module having a photovoltaic device, a reinforcing sheet for reinforcing the photovoltaic device and a covering material which seals the photovoltaic device on the reinforcing sheet is worked by bending at a region between the border of the photovoltaic device and the outer edge of the reinforcing sheet, where the reinforcing sheet is covered with the covering material at the part extending from the border of the photovoltaic device up to the bent portion closest thereto, or the covering material is, at the margin thereof, made to have a thickness cross-sectionally smaller as it extends farther from the border of the photovoltaic device, provided that the reinforcing sheet is not covered at the outward margin thereof with the covering material. The covering material which covers the photovoltaic device of the solar-cell module can be made to hardly come off.
