BLOCKING DIODES: 1-10 AMP BLOCKING DIODE. Diodes 10A 600V Axial leads Factory Fresh Stock A blocking diode is a semiconductor device used to stop the flow of current from one direction, but allow it in the opposite direction. In lay mans terms it is a one way street for electricity, You attach the diode to the (+) lead and when the panel is making electricity it will flow into your battery for example but when the sun went down or behind a cloud the battery would try to flow backwards into the panel, this could cause two things to happen the battery you just charged would discharge or the electricity from the battery could damage the cells, the diode will not let the electricity flow backwards.
