Abstract: A method for producing a photovoltaic (PV) laminate is provided. The method includes positioning a first PV cell string on a first side encapsulant layer, disposing a first segment of a second side encapsulant layer on the first PV cell string, and positioning a second PV cell string adjacent to the first PV cell string. The first segment has a width greater than the first PV cell string and an overhang portion of the first segment extends beyond an edge of the first PV cell string. The overhang portion of the first segment is disposed between the first PV cell string and the second PV cell string.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a photovoltaic (PV) module includes disposing a first set of fingers for a first PV cell segment on a first section of a silicon substrate. A second set of fingers for a second PV cell segment is disposed on a second section of the silicon substrate. The first set of fingers and the second set of fingers are separated by an isolation gap. At least one busbar is disposed on the silicon substrate proximate the isolation gap. The at least one busbar is electrically coupled to at least one of the first set of fingers and the second set of fingers. The method further includes contacting the at least one busbar with a contact member of a cell tester to test the first PV cell segment and the second PV cell segment.
