Model FSC 400 IBC | Back Contact IBC | 120 Half-Cut Cells | Monofacial | 1500V System Voltage
The First Choice Solar FSC 400 IBC 400W back contact monocrystalline solar panel delivers premium efficiency and long term reliability for demanding projects. This high performance IBC module is engineered for residential and commercial rooftops where space is limited and output must be maximized. With advanced back contact cell design, the front surface remains free of busbars and shading, so more sunlight is converted into usable power. The module reaches an impressive 22.30% efficiency and is paired with a robust 30 year product and power warranty. A low annual degradation rate of only 0.28% helps to maintain strong energy yields over the lifetime of your solar system. Built with tempered glass, anodized aluminium frame and IP68 junction box, the panel is suitable for harsh European climates and demanding installation environments. Designed and supplied by First Choice Solar BV in the Netherlands, this module offers a balance of cutting edge technology and proven durability for long lasting clean energy generation.
High power density for tight roofs: The 400 Wp output and 22.3% efficiency provide strong production on compact roof areas, helping systems reach target yields using fewer modules.
Back contact IBC cell technology: Interdigitated back contact cells place all busbars on the rear side, minimizing front shading and increasing energy capture even in softer light conditions.
Long 30 year warranty protection: A 30 year product warranty is combined with a 30 year power warranty, which guarantees at least 91.75% of initial power output after three decades.
Reliable performance in real weather: The module operates from -40°C to 85°C and uses optimized temperature coefficients, so performance stays stable across cold winters and hot summers.
Robust construction for long life: Tempered glass, a black anodized aluminium frame and IP68 rated junction box help protect the cells against humidity, dust and heavy rain, extending system lifetime.
Sunlight hits the high efficiency monocrystalline IBC cells and is converted directly into electrical energy. Because the FSC 400 IBC panel uses back contact technology, electrical pathways are moved behind the cells, keeping the active front surface as clear as possible. This design reduces shading from metal busbars and increases the area that can capture light. The module produces direct current power at a maximum of 400 Wp under standard test conditions. This DC power flows through the IP68 junction box and connectors to an external inverter or charge controller. The inverter converts the power into usable alternating current for homes, businesses or charging applications. Optimized voltage and current values allow the panel to be strung with other 1500 V rated modules, supporting efficient array design and reduced balance of system costs.
High efficiency IBC cell conversion: Each monocrystalline cell uses interdigitated back contacts to separate collection and transport of charge carriers. With busbars placed on the rear surface, more of the front area remains active, so a greater portion of incoming light is turned into electrical power. This results in higher module efficiency compared with conventional front contact cells.
Optimized electrical output and stringing: At maximum power, the panel delivers 36.1 V and 11.09 A, which is well suited to modern string inverters. Open circuit voltage reaches 42.1 V, enabling flexible string design inside 1500 V systems. These parameters allow installers to design arrays with suitable safety margins while keeping cable and mounting costs under control.
Thermal behavior and real world yield: The temperature coefficient of Pmax is -0.290% per degree Celsius, which limits output losses when cells heat up in strong sun. Voltage and current coefficients are also optimized, so the module continues to perform consistently across seasonal temperature swings. Combined with a low annual degradation rate of 0.28%, this supports strong and predictable energy yields over the lifetime of the installation.
