In this lot:
1. 220’ (~67 meters)
solder tinted = NO SOLDER needed (WOW!) Tab (Tabbing ) wire (ribbon)
2. 10’ (~3 meters)
solder tinted Bus wire (ribbon)
Many sellers will offer you TAB wire - please make sure:
1. The wire is Solder covered for main 2 reasons:
~ solder protects the surface of the copper from oxidation
and
~ provides a layer of solder to form a solder joint ( no solder needed !! - no mess, no stress )
2. The widest TAB wire you can get ( we sell ONLY 2mm ) the best for your project!:
~ easy to work with,
~ wire will provide best conduction
"Tabbing ribbon (flat wire) is a very specialized interconnect for photovoltaic modules. It is made of a copper ribbon or flat wire which is coated in solder. The solder protects the surface of the copper from oxidation and provides a layer of solder to form a solder joint. These solder-coated copper strips are used to channel current from the top and bottom of solar cells (tabbing/stringing) or to collect the electricity from these strings (bussing).
You can think of tabbing wire as roads which travel across a solar cell, and bus ribbon as the highways that connect and tie them together. The main difference: bus ribbon is a bit wider, and sometimes thicker than tabbing ribbon. Bus ribbon is larger in cross-section because it has more electrical current to carry.
