Will Damaged Solar Panels Still Work?

Cracked or broken solar panels may still generate power, but they won’t perform to their full potential. In many cases, damaged panels create a ‘weak link’ in the system, reducing the efficiency of all the connected panels. To ensure your solar array operates at maximum capacity, it’s often better to repair or replace damaged panels.

Whilst it might be tempting to ignore minor cracks, this can lead to more serious problems over time. For example, moisture can seep into the panel, causing internal damage and further reducing efficiency. In most cases, repairing or replacing the panel is the best option to restore full system performance and protect your investment.

Repairing a Damaged Solar Panel.

If you suspect your solar panels are damaged, it’s important to act quickly. Even minor cracks or faults can significantly reduce their efficiency and compromise the performance of your entire solar system. At East Yorkshire Solar, our repair process is straightforward and provides lasting results.

Inspection

Our first step is to conduct a detailed inspection of your solar panel system. We’ll identify any visible or hidden damage, such as cracks, scratches, or electrical faults. This inspection allows us to assess the extent of the problem and determine the best course of action.

Evaluation

Once we’ve identified the issue, we’ll evaluate whether the damaged panel can be repaired or if it requires a replacement. This decision is based on several factors, including the severity of the damage, the age of the panel, and the potential cost of repair versus replacement. We’ll always provide honest advice to ensure you get the best value for your money.

Quote

Transparency is important to us, which is why we’ll provide you with a clear and detailed quote before carrying out any work. This includes a breakdown of costs for repairs, replacements and labour so you know exactly what to expect.

Repair or Replacement

Once you’ve approved our quote, we’ll carry out the necessary work to the highest standard. Whether it’s repairing minor cracks, replacing a damaged panel or fixing wiring issues, we use only high-quality materials and components to ensure durability and performance. By addressing damage promptly, you can prevent further issues and ensure your solar PV system continues to generate clean, renewable energy for years to come.

Replacing Damaged or Broken Panels.

Solar panels are designed to be durable, but they can sometimes get damaged by things out of our control. Heavy storms, falling debris, hailstones, and general wear and tear can cause cracks or fractures, reducing your system’s efficiency. A damaged panel not only affects its own performance but can also impact the output of the entire solar system. Maintaining your solar panels will help prevent these costly repairs and downtime.

Our team will carefully remove the damaged panel and replace it with a high-quality solar panel replacement that matches the specifications of your existing system. We use only trusted manufacturers to ensure longevity and performance. By addressing damage promptly, you can maintain the efficiency and reliability of your solar PV system while preventing further issues.

Fixing Electrical Faults.

Electrical faults in solar PV systems can be caused by a variety of issues, including loose connections, damaged wiring, or defective components. These problems not only reduce efficiency but can also pose safety risks if left unresolved.

Our experienced electricians will conduct a thorough inspection of your system to identify the root cause of the fault. Whether it’s a simple connection issue or a more complex wiring problem, we’ll resolve it quickly and safely. Fixing electrical faults promptly ensures your system operates safely and efficiently, allowing you to benefit from consistent, reliable solar energy.

Inverter Replacements.

The inverter is an important component of any solar system, converting the DC electricity produced by your panels into AC electricity that can be used in your home or business. If your inverter is faulty or outdated, your system won’t perform as it should, potentially leaving you with reduced energy output or no power at all.

Common signs of a faulty inverter include error messages on the display, inconsistent power generation or a complete system shutdown. We’ll diagnose the issue and install a new, efficient inverter to improve energy conversions.
