About product

REC420AA is part of the PURE2 Series — one of the most recent made by REC. These panels employ cutting-edge technologies to achieve superior efficiency and reliability. The Passivated Emitter Rear Contact (PERC) technology ensures excellent power output. This solar cell type employs an additional reflective layer to absorb more sunlight.

The use of half-cut cell technology is an additional perk. The solar cells of REC420AA are half the size of those found in standard panels. Major advantages include reduced power consumption, extended life and enhanced efficiency in low-light conditions. At 21.1% efficiency, REC420AA offers surprising performance for its weight and size. Cell surface, back foil and frame are completely black, giving the model unrivaled aesthetics. REC provides a 25-year product warranty. Stable power output is also guaranteed — performance warranty will protect you during 25 years.

  • 132 half-cut PERC cells
  • 420 W nameplate capacity
  • 21.1% efficiency
  • 1000 V DC maximum system voltage
  • Stäubli MC4 connectors
  • 25 years of product and 25 years of performance warranty

Higher efficiency of up to 21.1%

REC420AA guarantees the highest power output. PERC technology and potent antireflective coating result in 21.1% module efficiency. This is significantly higher than average, which will result in substantial extra savings over the years of operation.

Excellent performance in adverse weather

Low temperature coefficient means greater energy production at high operating temperatures. REC420AA loses just -0.24% of efficiency for every 1.8°F above 77°F.

Quality and reliability

REC420AA undergoes various quality checks during the production process and is subjected to serious quality and reliability testing. Manufacturing facilities are highly automated, removing the possibility of human errors. REC is committed to quality, safety, and dependability to ensure you get the finest.

Reliability and degradation resistance

Slow degradation over the next 25 years is guaranteed by REC. The performance will decrease no more than 2% during the first year and 0.25% annually thereafter. Your modules will retain at least 92% of original performance after the 25 years are over. This 420 W REC solar panel also comes with a generous 25-year product warranty.

A panel that can handle hail, wind and snow

This module is weatherproof due to the 1.2" frame manufactured from anodized aluminum alloy and a layer of safety tempered glass. The modules' front and rear sides can withstand loads of 7000 and 4000 Pa, respectively.

Stunning black aesthetics

The sleek, all-black aesthetics of the panel will complement any rooftop. By using a variety of treatments and selection criteria, the producer guarantees high quality cell color. Engineers at REC employ smaller gauge wires to link the cells together, creating a seamless appearance.

FAQ

How much is shipping and how long is delivery?
Our standard shipping charge is $250 for up to 11 panels and it is increased by $25 for every 4 additional panels. In the event, the product is only available on East or West coast custom quote will be sent to you before the order is processed. Normally, we are able to deliver solar panels within 7 business days.
What is the difference between low price panels and top price panels?
With top tier solar panels, you pay for the brand name, proprietary new technology, higher energy output, and better warranty support.
What are the dimensions of the panel?
Please refer to the product datasheet on the product page. We have a datasheet for every product we sell.
How long is the warranty on the panel?
In general, manufacturers provide a 25 year-long performance warranty and a 10 year-long equipment guarantee. Some manufacturers offer 12-15 years of warranty. More information is available in our warranty support section.
Which panels do you recommend for RV, marine?
We recommend Panasonic and Mission Solar panels for smaller systems as their high energy output and excellent craftsmanship guarantee years of service.
Can this panel be used with a 12v system?
Any of our panels can be used for a 12v system with a properly selected inverter and charge controller.
Can I pick up this panel from your fulfillment center to save on shipping?
Yes, we can set up a pick up at a local distributor. Please call to discuss options and stock availability.
How do I connect these panels?
To achieve the best system efficiency, panels should be connected in series to create higher voltage.
How many panels do I need?
This number is determined by your average energy needs. Depending on the type of panels and energy consumption, you might need anywhere from 12 to 45 solar panels. Remember, the more panels you install the more energy you will get.Please use our solar calculator to estimate your energy consumption and plan on building a solar system that will exceed your energy needs by 25%.
Do you offer discounts?
We do offer discounts for orders of over 50 units. Please contact us for details.
How do I build a solar system?
Please use our solar calculator to estimate what equipment you need. Choose your panels, microinverters, inverters, and solar batteries if necessary.Please note that we do not offer solar system design or installation.
How do solar panels compare?
Solar panels differ by power output, voltage, connection type, size, efficiency, and weight. Some solar panels might be sold together with microinverters as a set.
Can I build a solar system by myself as a Do It Yourself project?
Yes, it is possible if you understand what solar equipment you need and how to connect it together. However, please be mindful that handling your own electrical work without having proper experience might cause life-threatening injuries. Please contact a certified electrician if you do not possess appropriate electrical skills.
Can I connect and charge my solar panel battery directly with the solar panel?
We do not recommend using the solar panel without the charge controller. Using solar panels without the charge controller might damage the batteries.
Can I drill holes into the aluminum frame for mounting?
We do not recommend drilling any new holes to the aluminum frame of the panel as it could damage the internal circuit and solar cells. (Also, any modification to the panel will void the warranty). We recommend only using the pre-drilled holes for mounting.
Do solar panels require maintenance? Can I wash my solar panel?
Solar panels generally require very little maintenance. We recommend cleaning the solar panel with water, glass cleaner (Windex) and microfiber cloth.
Will my panel produce power in an overcast condition?
While solar panels require sunlight to generate solar energy, they will still work in cloudy weather. Even on a cloudy day, solar panels will produce energy just not as much.
Will my panels produce power if covered with snow?
Solar panels cannot produce electricity if covered with snow.
What is the best direction for a solar panel to face?
The best direction for a solar panel to face is the South
