Step 1: Position the Solar Panel
The position and tilt angle of the solar panel greatly affect the solar efficiency.
1. Choose a location where the solar panel gets the most sunlight throughout the year.
2. Position the panel south-facing in the Northern Hemisphere or north-facing in the Southern Hemisphere. The recommended tilt angle between the panel and the horizontal ground is 35° ~ 45°.
3. Regularly wipe the panel to remove dust and debris.
Step 2: Mount the Solar Panel
*Here we take Tapo A201 as an example.
