Most solar cells will continue to produce a current even after they''ve been cracked. This current should still be usable, but your panel won''t operate at maximum voltage.

The short answer is: yes, a cracked solar panel will still work, at least partially and temporarily. However, this comes with significant caveats for both short-term operation and long-term

Since there are a few statistical analysis of data for investigating the impact of cracks in PV modules in real-time long-term data measurements. Therefore, this paper will demonstrate a statistical approach

No, a solar panel will not work if it is cracked. A solar panel is made up of many individual solar cells, and each cell needs to be intact in order to generate electricity.
