 Some conditions can cause an effective magnification of solar power, the opposite of shade in a way.  This is usually caused by reflection of previously-uncaptured light onto the panels -- the panels are receiving both normal //direct// light and the additional //reflected// light at the same time. Since panels are rated at a lab standard 1000w/meter<sup>2</sup> , this multiplication of available light can cause the panels to make more than their rated power, and can cause current and/or voltage to rise beyond rated specs.
