Abstract:
A solar module comprising a substrate, a honeycomb structure on the substrate, a solar panel on the honeycomb structure, such that the substrate, honeycomb and solar panel form a sandwich having an exterior perimeter, a rotary junction box configured to be manipulated through the substrate between at least first and second electrical configurations, a plurality of electrical couplers along the exterior perimeter, and a plurality of electrical connectors connecting the solar panel, the rotary junction box, and the electrical couplers; wherein the honeycomb structure defines one or more channels and a pocket, the channels facilitating the electrical connectors and the pocket receiving the rotary junction box.
