While it’s rare to experience a broken solar panel, they do still break on occasion. The most common reason for a breakage is damage sustained by an object, such as a falling tree branch. In high winds, debris with sharp corners and edges (like a piece of sheet metal) may be picked up and slammed into the panel’s surface.
The general rule of thumb is that broken or scratched glass can be replaced if it hasn’t caused any further damage to the solar panel. Any damage to the inner components requires the solar panel to be replaced. Can I Fix Solar Panel Parts Myself?
A broken solar panel that cannot be repaired will have to be taken away for recycling. Whatever you do, do not throw it in a landfill or dump it anywhere. Solar panels contain harmful or toxic elements that can cause environmental damage if they leach into the ground.
Even a panel with several cracks can still operate without any loss of efficiency. However, just because it still works, it doesn’t mean you can leave it be. While it may generate power for you, it can also pose a serious safety risk. The key problem is that cracks on a solar panel will begin to let in water.
