Practice No.02 Date: 02.09.2022 & Time 2:50-4:50 PM
AIM OF THE PRACTICE: Shadow analysis of a solar PV module

EQUIPMENT REQUIRED (IF ANY)

Sl. No. Name Specification Quantity
1 Sun Light W/m2 1
2 Solar Panel Watt(W) 1
3 Multi meter Digital 1

THEORY
 Solar energy is the radiation from the Sun capable of producing heat, causing chemical reactions or
generating electricity.
 Sun radiation is consists of both heat and light energy.
 Solar Panel is an electrical device that produces electric power when it's exposed to sunlight.
 The Shadow analysis could be on the nearby trees, building or even the PV module array installed
ahead.
 Multi-meter is electrical or electronic instrument which is used to measure Voltage, Current, power
etc.

 PROCEDURE

 Collect required apparatus as per the given experiment/practice.

 Identify and specify each of them.
 Identify both shadow and shadow free region for solar project.

OBSERVATION
It is observed that-
1. Solar street light is used to produce electricity at night
2. Solar panel of a street light is shadow by growing mango tree in our campus, producing less output
for solar panel

Safety Precautions- Don’t fiddle with any electrical points of theequipment

CONCLUSION
.
From above practice I have studied and observed the shadow analysis of a solar PV system and the
practice is completed successfully.
