Its N-type monocrystalline cells contribute to a lower degradation rate and improved power generation, especially in warmer climates. The panel's robust construction ensures long-term durability and consistent energy output, making it a reliable choice for both residential and commercial solar projects. For battery charging applications, pairing this panel with a suitable solar charge controller is essential. For 12V battery systems, a high-efficiency MPPT solar charge controller rated at 30A or higher is recommended. For 24V battery systems, a high-efficiency MPPT or standard PWM solar charge controller rated at 20A or higher is generally advised. Typical Applications Application Description Residential Grid-Tie Systems Generating electricity for homes, reducing utility bills, and potentially exporting excess power to the grid. Off-Grid Power Solutions Providing reliable power for remote cabins, caravans, motorhomes, and boats. Commercial Rooftop Installations Powering small businesses and commercial properties to lower operating costs. Agricultural & Industrial Use Powering pumps, lighting, and essential equipment in agricultural or remote industrial settings. Built-In Protection & Durability The LG Neon² 380W panel is constructed for exceptional durability and long-term performance. It is fully waterproof and designed to withstand challenging environmental conditions. The panel is rated for a front load of up to 6,000Pa, equivalent to being buried under 1.8m of snow, and a rear load of 5,400Pa, capable of resisting hurricane-strength winds. This robust build, combined with LG's rigorous quality control and MCS certification, ensures a reliable and safe solar energy solution. Common Questions What is LG's Cello Technology? Cello Technology replaces the traditional 3-5 wide busbars with twelve thin, circular wires. This design reduces electrical resistance, enhances light absorption, and provides multiple current paths, leading to higher power output and improved reliability. Is this panel suitable for off-grid systems? Yes, the LG Neon² 380W panel is suitable for off-grid installations. However, it is essential to use it with a compatible solar charge controller to regulate the voltage and current for battery charging. What does MCS certified mean? MCS (Microgeneration Certification Scheme) certification indicates that a product meets specific quality and safety standards for microgeneration technologies in the UK. It is often a requirement for grid-connected solar installations to qualify for certain incentives. What kind of warranty does this panel have? The LG Neon² 380W panel comes with a 25-year workmanship warranty. Additionally, it has a 25-year linear performance warranty, guaranteeing at least 98.5% of nominal power in the first year, with a maximum degradation of 0.33% per year thereafter, ensuring at least 90.6% power output by the 25th year. Installation Notes Professional installation is recommended to ensure safety and optimal performance. Ensure secure mounting to withstand local wind and snow loads. Connect to a compatible solar charge controller or grid-tie inverter. Verify correct wiring polarity and connections before commissioning. Refer to the manufacturer's official installation guide for detailed instructions. Before You Buy Confirm compatibility with your existing or planned solar system components. Assess your energy requirements to ensure the 380W output meets your needs. Check available roof or mounting space and structural integrity. Consider local regulations and planning permissions for solar installations. Consult with a qualified solar installer for system design and advice. Always verify product specifications and compatibility with your specific system requirements before purchase. All information is based on verified manufacturer data and industry standards.
