Improving Conductivity and Waterproof Ability of Solar Tile Connectors

The project is to enhance the stability of the detachable solar tile panel connector in terms of conductivity and waterproof ability. The student will investigate other applications such as solar tiles for roof mounted applications and the current designs and prototypes developed by Square Solar. They will also develop a set of design requirements that the connectors must meet taking into account requirements from applicable Canadian standards. The research will also develop designs to meet the optimum size, thickness, and materials for the solar tile connectors for practical production.
