How to make solar panels for home use?
I am not electronic engineer.Still I am interested to try this.Please give any web site add.
While it is possible to solder together solar cells to make a panel, it would not be allowed to be connected to the house in the US, as it is not UL listed. If you are looking for a fun project that would be stand alone and power a CFL light with a battery or something like that, it is fine. You can find sites that give instructions for free, avoid the sites that tell you you can power your house for $200. You can not.
If you have knowledge of Electronics, you refer the books regarding solar electronics and make own solar panels for home. Otherwise you contact solar instrument saler.

This is not an easy task, and you need a lot of special materials and tools. Particularly the solar collector material which is a high-tech film and is not cheap or easy to come by.
A solar hot water system can be more easily made using more available materials - plywood, plexiglass, rubber tubing, spraypaint, etc. If you search online you’ll find some nice plans.
