NOVELTY - Plating method involves providing an array of solar cells, mounting the array of solar cells onto a support substrate, depositing a plating resist onto the exposed surface of the array of solar cells and horizontal spacing between the solar cells, forming openings in the plating resist, forming a conductive seed layer and a metal or metal alloy layer on top of the conductive seed layer, etching back the portions of the metal or metal alloy layer and the conductive seed layer, and forming a wiring (113) between solar cells and wiring reinforcement pillars (114).    USE - Plating method used for manufacture of electrical contacts on solar module (claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The plating method enables the manufacture of electrical contacts with excellent mechanical stability and reliability, without requiring adhesives and solder joints, by simple process, and provides the solar modules with high photo-electric conversion efficiency.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Plating method involves providing an array of solar cells separated from each other by a horizontal spacing and having exposed surface comprising one or more contact area on each solar cell, mounting the array of solar cells onto a support substrate, depositing a plating resist onto the exposed surface of the array of solar cells and the horizontal spacing between the solar cells, forming openings in the plating resist and exposing one or more contact area on each solar cell and one or more portion of the horizontal spacing between the solar cells, forming a conductive seed layer on top of the plating resist and the openings, forming a metal or metal alloy layer on top of the conductive seed layer, etching back the portions of the metal or metal alloy layer and the conductive seed layer sufficient for removing both the metal or metal alloy layer and the conductive seed layer from the plating resist leaving a metal or metal alloy layer in the openings, and forming a wiring between solar cells and wiring reinforcement pillars. An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is included for solar module.    DESCRIPTION OF DRAWING(S) - The drawing shows the schematic view explaining the plating method for manufacture of conductive lines on solar cells and wiring between solar cells on solar module.    Wiring (113)    Wiring reinforcement pillars (114)
