Abstract
A method of connecting solar battery cells, each provided with a front-face and a back-face electrode, comprises: preparing a wiring member including a strip-like conductive substrate and an adhesive layer provided on one face of the substrate, and bonding the adhesive layer on one end portion of the wiring member with the front-face electrode or the back-face electrode of one cell; turning an other end portion of the wiring member having completed the above preparation, around a central axis along a longitudinal direction so an adhesive layer surface of the other end portion is opposite in orientation to an adhesive layer surface of the one end portion; and then bonding the adhesive layer of the other end portion of the wiring member with an electrode of another solar battery cell having an opposite polarity to the electrode of the one cell previously bonded in the aforementioned preparation process.
