How to detect if a solar cell is broken

There are dozens of possible solar panel quality defectsthat we come across at solar module manufacturers in Asia. Some defects can only be detected by using advanced testing equipment, such as electroluminescence (EL) testers, sun simulators, thermal cameras or resistance testers. Other defects can only be spotted by.
