Tesla

Photovoltaic Module
T420S, T425S, and T430S

Maximum Power
The Tesla module is one of the most powerful
residential photovoltaic modules available.
Our system requires up to 20 percent fewer
modules to achieve the same power as a standard
system. The module boasts a high conversion
efficiency and a half-cell architecture that
improves shade tolerance.

Beautiful Solar
Featuring our proprietary Zep Groove design,
the all-black module connects easily with Tesla
ZS components to keep panels close to your
roof and close to each other for a blended
aesthetic with simple drop-in and precision
quarter-turn connections.

Reliability
Tesla modules are subject to automotive-grade
engineering scrutiny and quality assurance,
far exceeding industry standards.
Modules are certified to IEC / UL 61730 - 1,
IEC / UL 61730 - 2 and IEC / UL 61215.
