A recent video released by the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection gives us a good look at the construction of Tesla’s solar shingles.
Fire training instructor Brock Archer narrates the video and offers a few details on the shingles:
The panels are made up of photovoltaic cells mounted on top of a firestone clad guard, which creates a thin barrier of moisture.
Wiring is hidden underneath the tiles.
A single Solar Roof tile appears as three shingles on the roof.
Up to four tiles can be wired together to create branches, then wired to a diode trunk harness that carries the electricity across the roof.
Archer also notes that there is almost zero risk of shock or electrocution when cutting through the tiles.
Check out the video below.
