Common Questions
Click a question below to reveal the answer.
What is the difference between the Aiko 490W and 540W panels?
The 490 W uses a 54-cell format (1,762 x 1,134 mm, 24.2 kg) while the 540 W uses a larger 60-cell format (1,954 x 1,134 mm, 27.1 kg). Both share the same N-Type ABC technology, -0.26%/°C temperature coefficient, dual-glass construction, and warranty terms. The 540 W has higher Voc (45.6 V vs 41.1 V), making it better suited for longer strings on larger arrays.
What cell technology does this panel use?
N-Type ABC (All Back Contact) technology, which relocates all electrical contacts to the rear of the cell. This eliminates front-side busbars, increases the active light-absorbing area, and creates a clean uniform appearance.
Is this panel MCS certified for the UK?
Yes. The Aiko 540 W is MCS certified (MR 50677721 0001/2118), qualifying for the Smart Export Guarantee in the UK.
What connectors does the Aiko 540W use?
Original Stäubli MC4-EVO2A connectors with 1.2 m cable length.
