Abstract
A terminal assembly for providing external electrical connection to a solar panel having at least one solar cell and an electrically conductive layer located behind the cell. The terminal assembly has a substantially flat conductive portion between the cell and the conductive layer, and an insulating member of high dielectric strength positioned behind the flat portion to electrically isolate the flat portion from the conductive layer. A connector portion preferably extends rearwardly from the flat portion and through an opening in the conductive layer, the insulating member extending about the connector portion.
