The performance of a solar cell under sun radiation is necessary to describe the electrical parameters of the cell. The Prova 200 solar panel analyzer is used for the professional testing of four solar panels at Baghdad climate conditions. Voltage-current characteristics of different area solar cells operated under solar irradiation for testing their quality and determining the optimal operational parameters for maximum electrical output were obtained. The photovoltaic module is typically represented by an equivalent circuit whose parameters are calculated using the experimental current voltage characteristic I-V. The precise determination of these parameters remains a challenge for researchers, which led to a diversification in models and numerical methods used for their characterizations. For the four solar module types A,B,C and D , the parallel resistance Rsh is generally high, and its contribution has a little influence in the model, so for that the model with four parameters is one of the mainly used in literature. Parametric characterization of the four parameters model is the objective of this work.
