Identifying the cause of the growing phenomenon of discoloration and crisscrossing narrow dark lines on solar module surfaces. 太阳能组件表面日益渐增的变色现象和蜗牛纹的原因 Dr. Alan xu, Mr. Swee lim lee Dr. ruijing han In recent years, the solar industry has been facing a mysterious phenomenon which experts have dubbed snail trail due to its unusual appearance. After a period of time ranging from several months to several years after initial installation, solar modules show some discoloration on the cells, and crisscrossing narrow dark lines about the thickness of a finger begin to appear on the surface of the modules. Snail trail has become a widespread phenomenon, with more than 13 module makers from around the world facing a similar technical obstacle. Although having carried out extensive research, there has not been identification of an exact culprit. However, Canadian Solar, one of the top five module manufacturers in the world, will identify the cause and proper steps to take to treat snail trail. 近年来,太阳能行业一直有一个难以解释的现象，由于其不寻常的外观而被专家们称作 “蜗牛纹”。经过 一段时间，从安装始几个月到几年不等,太阳能组件的电池出现变色, 大约一个手指粗的狭窄交错的暗线开始 出现在组件的表面。蜗牛纹已经广泛出现,来自世界各地的超过13个组件生产商正面临类似的技术障碍。虽然 进行了广泛的研究,但还没有找出确切的罪魁祸首。然而,阿特斯（加拿大研究中心）世界顶级五大组件制 造商之一,将确定原因并采取适当的措施处理蜗牛纹。 Based on Canadian Solar’s module manufacturing experience, snail trail happens very rarely – affecting very few modules, with the good news being that it does not appear to affect the output wattage. Testing of Canadian Solar’s modules with snail trail have been both internally by the Canadian Solar Photovoltai
