I am pretty sure that tempered glass with shatter as soon as you cut
into the edge. That is the nature of tempered glass.

Mick,
If you have a junk module, I'm fairly sure you can cut it up by using
a lapidary saw - the wet diamond slow-speed kind that gem and mineral
people use. I mean I'm sure you can cut it. Fairly sure it will not go
to pieces. I'm not sure there's much to be learned by looking at it,
but ...

Yo, Wrenchies~
Does anyone offer a sample PV module which would allow a
cross-section view of the laminate/metal frame?
I told my teacher friend that a laminated glass unit could not be
sawed in half without totally shattering the glass. I also told him
that I would ask around to see if anyone makes a cutaway especially
for show & tell purposes.
Any suggestions would be welcomed. If nothing else maybe we buy some
of those mini-modules that are potted in plastic, no metal frame,
then get after it with an angle grinder and a thin cutting wheel.
That sounds like a lot of carnage but I haven't done any major
destruction so far this year, so maybe it's time...
Jolliness,
