From: Ken Mardle Date: 1 October 2017 at 14:17 Subject: PV panel repairs To: Russell McMahon Russell, There are a couple of videos on YouTube showing repairs to PV panels done b= y accessing the tabbing strips through the backing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DEEZaSOullXo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DKO_05TaaziU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D8b1-rjNzqUo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DaB4frwjCM8o The guy in the videos sounds Australian, but one of his videos mentions that he got the panels via Trademe from a seller in Taupo - so it would seem that he is in NZ. He doesn't use any fancy precision gear - just a sharp knife to pare away the backing. This has to be a much better idea than trying to drill the glass (which being toughened would probably shatter).
