PID is essentially a voltage leak. It happens when a difference in electrical potential between the solar cells and other panel materials, like the frame, causes ions to migrate. This can create a kind of "shadow" or dark patch on the panel.
A multifunctional photovoltaic panel keel is used for fixing a photovoltaic panel, the keel is fixed on a main steel structure through a galvanized connecting piece and a stainless steel bolt group, and the keel comprises a main keel, a pressing strip and a buckle.
The gap lines are spaces between the solar cells, through which you can see the panel's white backing. Both the fingers and the busbars are electrical conductors.
If you suspect solar panel damage, the first thing to do is contact the installation company or another qualified solar energy system repair outfit. The technician can accurately evaluate the type of damage and the extent of the problem.
