As these cracks become larger, they can disrupt the flow of energy in the solar panel and reduce the energy output of the system, thus decreasing the efficiency of the solar power system.

If the soldering temperature is too low or the flux is applied too little or the speed is too fast, it will lead to false soldering, while if the soldering temperature is too high or the soldering time is too long, it will
Learn More
Burn marks can result in performance and yield loss as hot spots indicate restricted current flow when they are due to high resistance solder joints. But even if shading or cell breakage is the cause, there

They only become visible once power loss, hot spots, or catastrophic failure occurs, by which point the financial cost is much higher. EL testing allows a chance to intercept those failures
