Abstract:
A photovoltaic module comprising: (a) a photovoltaic laminate including: (i) one or more connectors connected to and extending from the photovoltaic laminate, and (ii) one or more integrated frames each including one or more engagement features, and the one or more integrated frames being in communication with each of the one or more connectors; and wherein the one or more engagement features are asymmetrical so that each of the one or more connectors can only be installed in each of the one or more integrated frames in a single configuration; and wherein each of the one or more integrated frames are connected to the photovoltaic laminate in a location proximate to the one or more connectors so that the one or more integrated frames provide support to the one or more connectors during the manufacturing process, during use, during installation, or a combination thereof.
