Solar module for a photovoltaic system

It is proposed having at least one solar cell to a solar module (10) for a photovoltaic system. In order to reduce the power loss of the solar module in the case of a shadowed or damaged solar module, a semiconductor switching element (T1) is parallel to the solar module (10) connected and further a control electronics (14) is provided, the semiconductor switching element (T1) in the case of power generation of the solar module ( 10) locks and otherwise (10 to bridge the solar module) switches low impedance.
