Photovoltaic cells are intricate systems that transform solar energy into electrical power. Certain internal parameters, such as diode saturation current, conversion resistance, and series resistance, significantly influence the performance of electrical components. Frequently, manufacturers do not provide these parameters. At the moment, researchers need new and clear ways to measure these factors so they can get a better idea of how solar cells work and improve efficiency through simulations. We present a novel approach to accurately determining the five parameters (series resistance, shunt resistance, photovoltaic cell current, and diode saturation current) for multi-crystalline silicon solar cell models. This approach employs the Lambert function and the curve of parasitic resistance. By utilizing the extracted internal electrical parameters, this method will enhance the efficiency of solar cells through the facilitation of more accurate simulations.
