Would some sellers want to deceive us to sell their merchandise at a higher price by making us believe in greater robustness? A dealer (less watching) confirmed to me that a safety glass plate was fragile especially in the corners. Hence my fears for the distortions of the panel during handling.
Glass is much softer than you think
This is an answer that will amaze more than one (than me!). Although I have never handled large glass plates, like everyone else I have the idea of a rigid plate with little resistance to mechanical stresses (distortions, "bends") or violent shocks. So my little euros are broken into a thousand pieces.
For a neophyte the question of glazing for the solar panel of his dreams is crucial. Not being a confirmed handyman (far from it), I think that this choice must also be an important question for other newbies who follow this thread given the amount that we can spend on the glazing especially if it is badly advised.
If the turn of the matter could be done on this thread it would be of great service to some.
I continue my research
