A sheet set for encapsulating a solar battery including a first encapsulating sheet and a second encapsulating sheet which are disposed between a light-incident surface protective member and a back surface protective member, and are used to encapsulate solar battery elements is provided. When the first encapsulating sheet and the second encapsulating sheet are subjected to a heating and pressurization treatment in which the first encapsulating sheet and the second encapsulating sheet are heated and depressurized under defined conditions, a volume resistivity of the first encapsulating sheet measured under defined conditions, is higher than a volume resistivity of the second encapsulating sheet. The first encapsulating sheet is disposed between the light-incident surface protective member and the solar battery elements. The second encapsulating sheet has at least one polar group selected from a carboxyl group, an ester group, a hydroxyl group, an amino group, and an acetal group.

A laminate of a magnetic substrate comprising a high molecular compound layer and a magnetic metal thin plate wherein the volume resistivity defined in JIS H 0505 in a direction perpendicular to the high molecular compound layer surface of the laminate is less than 10&#x3a9;cm. The laminate is provided with an electrical continuity point created among magnetic metal thin plates such that the high molecular compound inside the laminate is pushed out to the outside of the laminate by pressurizing the laminate. The laminate can exhibit high thermal conductivity in order to prevent deterioration of heat releasing properties caused by low thermal conductivity when exothermic heat due to the core loss of the laminate of the magnetic substrate is released to the outside.

The substrate has first and second primary-side regions and a secondary-side region in its longitudinal direction in this order. The first region has a length of a half wavelength of stress distribution at the time of resonance in the longitudinal direction and has either positive or negative stress. The second region has a length of a half wavelength or less of the stress distribution and has either positive or negative stress. First and second electrode are respectively disposed on the first and second main faces in the first primary-side region, and the substrate between the first and second electrodes is polarized in the thicknesswise direction. Third and fourth electrodes are respectively disposed on the first and second main faces in the second primary-side region, and the substrate between the third and fourth electrodes is polarized in the thicknesswise direction. A secondary-side electrode is disposed in the secondary-side region, and the secondary-side region is polarized in the longitudinal direction. Directions of polarization and stress of the first and second regions and the electrical connection among the first to fourth electrode are determined in order for the second region to enhance the resonance of the substrate excited by the first region.
