Abstract: The invention relates to a junction box which safely dissipates heat produced by electrical/electronic components assembled in the box. The junction box has a housing with cover and at least one component chamber that juts out from a side wall of the housing. The component chamber has cooling fins. An electric or electronic component, sheathed in insulation, is inserted into the component chamber, such that it fits firmly against the walls of the chamber. The cover has cooling fins and overhangs the body of the housing and the component chamber in several areas. The construction of the junction box with the component chambers that jut out from the body and the housing cover with overhang enhance heat dissipation and allow the box to be used with solar modules in which bypass flows up to 16 A and greater occur.

Abstract: The invention relates to a junction box for solar panels, with which the heat produced in the protecting diodes, MOSFETs or other corresponding power semiconductors of a solar panel can be reliably dissipated. In the junction box, the electronic components are pressed against the housing (1) or into recesses (3) corresponding to the geometry of the components by means of pressure elements, and electrical isolation, preferably a thermally conductive silicone rubber, is provided between the housing (1) and the components.
