Modeling 60-cell PV modules: healthy PV module (top left) with identical solar cells grouped in each cell-substring (bottom left), PV module with PID-p (top center) and the corresponding I_PH values (bottom center) and PV module with PID-s (top right) and the corresponding R_SH values (bottom right). Note: the colors of the solar cells qualitatively illustrate degradation levels and do not represent the actual values of the model input parameters.
