Does "HBgenerator" also be considered as a shading device (HBcontext)?

I have defined a detached surface as a solar panel on rooftop and would like to understand the impact of the panel installation on energy consumption. I have defined it as a shading surface by using “HB_context_surface” (picture 1). Do I still need to connect the geometry to “HBContext_” (picture 2)? Or it would be considered as a shading surface even if I don’t connect it. Please help. Thanks.

You do need to connect this context.
