Abstract: A solar battery module includes: a plurality of solar battery cells, a plain shape of each being a substantial rectangle, and a ratio of a short side length and a long side length of the substantial rectangle being 1/n:1 (n is an integer equal to or larger than 2), includes a plurality of light-receiving-surface bus electrodes parallel to the short side of the substantial rectangle on a light receiving surface, and includes rear-surface bus electrodes each at a position on a non-light-receiving surface corresponding to each of the light-receiving-surface bus electrodes; and a light-receiving-surface lead (an interconnector) that electrically connects the light-receiving-surface bus electrodes of one of the solar battery cells to the rear-surface bus electrodes of adjacent one of the solar battery cells.

Abstract: A solar cell module includes a solar cell panel including a light receiving surface, a rail-like holding member joined to a rear surface on the opposite side of the light receiving surface in the solar cell panel, the holding member reinforcing and holding the solar cell panel, an assisting member fixed to an end in a longitudinal direction of the holding member within the holding member, the assisting member assisting the holding of the solar cell panel by the holding member, and a screw that fixes the assisting member to the holding member. The assisting member has a bent shape bent in a direction opposed to the light receiving surface from a portion erected to the light receiving surface side through an edge of the solar panel from a position on the rear surface side fixed to the holding member by the fixing member.

Abstract: A terminal box for a solar cell module is composed of, a box body, an inner cover and an outer cover, wherein the box body includes a bottom plate, an outer plate arranged in an upright manner around the bottom plate, and an inner plate arranged also in an upright manner inside the outer plate to enclose a circuit housing area; the inner cover includes a top plate and a side plate extended downward from an outer circumference of the top plate, and is formed into a lid shape and fitted around an outer surface of the inner plate to cover the circuit housing area; and the outer cover is fitted around the outer plate of the box body to thereby cover the inner cover and the box body, wherein the terminal box further includes a fitting member that causes the inner cover to be fitted to the box body to thereby prevent the inner cover from being removed from the circuit housing area.
