What is the relationship between Rdc and Rseries of solar cells?

07 July 2015 1 6K Report

Are these two the same?

I am reading somewhere that Rdc is the reciprocal of the I-V slope. Is series resistance Rdc at maximum point?

In solar cell model the series resistance is the summation of contact and the sheet resistance offered without biased stage . It always acts as dc resistance for particular operating stage. I think both are the same.
