Best Answer

A solar panel develops volts of EMF across its terminals when it's illuminated.

If a conducting path is provided between its terminals, then amps of current flow.

Just like any other battery or generator.

How many solar panel can generate 1 mega watt?

it depends on your solar panels, i can tell you if you know the amperage and the volts, you can find the amount of watts it produce, the equation is watts = amps x volts. hate to give you an equation as an answer


How many amperes generate by 40 watt solarpanel in 1 hour?

Amps measure the current flow so they flow all the time whether it's a minute or an hour, until they are switched off. A solar panel generates watts, that is volts times amps, so if the panel were a 20-volt panel the current would be 2 amps.


In a 12 volt solar panel which produces 170 watts equals how many amps?

Watts = Volts x Amps, if you use your algebra you will find that it's approx 14 Amps.


12 volt solar equal to amp?

Solar panels are rated in watts output. To find the amperage use this equation, Amps = Watts/Volts. The wattage will be on the nameplate of the solar panel.


What do I do if I want less volts and more amps from a solar panel to a battery?

You would have to add panels in parallel to get more amps and then add a variable resistance in one leg to drop the voltage to your device.


How many amps from a kilowatt of solar power?

watts are equal to amps times volts.


How can you get the wattage of a 1x3 solar panel when it is 17 volts output?

u multiply your voltage times max current (amps) and this gives u max wattage.


How many solar panels would you need to generate 100 amps?

How many watts required to get 230 volts from generator?

There are no watts to generate volts!! There is a relation that is watts = volts * Amps Generators are set up to generate a specific voltage regardless or watts or amps capacity it has.


Watts a 100 amp panel will run?

The formula you are looking for is Watts = Amps x Volts.


How many amp will a 280 watts panel generate?

A panel does not generate any current, the generating happens at the power plant. A 280 watt panel on a 120 v supply can supply up to 2.3 amps.


How do you figure out how big of a solar cell you need for a job?

You look at the job you need to do, ie, how many volts and amps, or volts and watts, that you need. Then you look in the catalogs for a solar cell or solar cell array to produce that much power.
