If each cell in the module in Problem 4 produces 3A, describe the system required to produce at least 20 A at 32 V.
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

To obtain 32 V from a PV module, how many individual cells must be used and how should they be connected (assume 0.5 V per cell)?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

The cells within the module are in series (as shown in problem 4), so the module voltage is 32 V and the module is rated for 3 A.

To produce 20 A total, (20 A/3 A) = 7 modules in parallel are required. ITOT = 7(3A) = 21 A

Answer to Question 2

Number of series cells = 32 V/0.5 V = 64 cells in series
