The average size of solar panels used in a rooftop solar installation is approximately 65 inches by 39 inches or 5 4 feet by 3 25 feet there is some variation from brand to brand and if you re installing a large scale solar panel system such as for a warehouse or a municipal building your panels will be closer to 6 feet long. The average solar panel payback period is 7 to 12 years and solar energy saves 600 to 2 000 per year on electricity costs. Most solar panels last for 50 years have a 25 year warranty and start generating a return on investment after 8. But if we want to measure more than 5 volts then we have to use some additional circuitry like voltage divider.
