<![CDATA[Abstrak — Sel surya merupakan energi listrik terbarukan, dengan adanya potensi sinar matahari yang umumnya merata dan tersedia sepanjang tahun, dimana radiasi surya rata-rata sekitar 4,5 kwh/m2 sangat berpotensi dimanfaatkan sebagai pendukung kebutuhan energi listrik kita. Sel surya dapat dimodelkan dengan bentuk paralel ataupun seri, jika sel surya dirangkai seri tegangan akan berubah sementara arus tetap dan jika diparalel tegangan tetap arusnya berbeda. Bentuk karakteristik tersebut dipengaruhi cahaya matahari. Perubahan tegangan sel surya yang dirangkai seri jika cahaya cerah 39.6V namun jika sel surya diparalel 19.8V. Sementara arus keluaran maksimal jika sel surya dirangkai paralel 2.45A dan jika diserikan 1.78A. Dari data diatas disimpulkan bahwa selisih perbandingan antara tegangan sel surya yang dihubung seri terhadap paralel adalah 100.05% dimana tegangan pada hubungan seri lebih besar sedangkan selisih perbandingan arus antara seri dan paralel adalah 83.19% dimana arus pada hubungan paralel lebih optimal.Kata kunci : Sel Surya, Karakteristik Arus-Tegangan, Rangkaian Seri-Paralel.Abstract — Solar cells are renewable electrical energy, with the potential for sunlight that is generally even and available throughout the year, where the average solar radiation of around 4.5 kwh / m2 has the potential to be used as a support for our electricity needs. Solar cells can be modeled in parallel or in series, if the series solar cell voltage is changed while the current is constant and if the parallel is fixed the voltage is different. The characteristic shape is influenced by sunlight. Changes in the voltage of the solar cell are arranged in series if the light is 39.6V bright but if the solar cell is paralleled 19.8V. While the output current is maximum if the solar cell is arranged in parallel 2.45A and if it is transmitted 1.78A. From the data above, it can be concluded that the difference in the ratio between the voltage of the solar cell in series and parallel is 100.05% where the voltage in the series relationship is greater while the difference in the current ratio between series and parallel is 83.19% where the current in the parallel relationship is more optimal.Keywords : Solar Cells, Current-Voltage Characteristics, Series-Parallel Circuits]]>
