General exam question G4E08

WhyThe individual cells in a solar panel are connected together in a series-parallel configuration. Individual solar cells are wired in series to build up usable voltage and in parallel to build up usable current, so a practical solar panel uses a series-parallel arrangement of its cells, answer A. Shunt, bypass, and full-wave bridge describe other circuit configurations (a bypass diode is sometimes added around cell strings, but that isn't how the cells themselves are interconnected), not the panel's basic cell wiring.
