To meet the needs of electrical energy, there are alternative energy sources such as solar power in a form of solar power plant. An important equipment aim to handle the of converting of solar energy into electrical energy are solar cells. The development of devices used to modify solar energy into electrical energy has been done since the mid-first half of the last century. Gradually the device is named by scientists with a photovoltaic device, or so-called solar cells (solar cell. This research tested polycrystalline solar module in sunny weather, bright cloudy and overcast. The test results show the effect of solar cell surface temperature to the value of its output power [1]. The condition of the polycrystalline solar panels will work optimally at the measured 32° C - 50° C temperature range on the surface of the solar cell.
