2 Disclaimer of liability
Since the use of this Installation, Operation and Mainte- nance Manual and the conditions of installation, opera- tion, use and maintenance of the module are beyond Bosch Solar Energy AG control, Bosch Solar Energy AG does not assume responsibility and expressly disclaims liability for loss, damage, injury or expense arising out of or in anyway connected with such installation, operation, use or maintenance of the module.
Bosch Solar Energy AG assumes no responsibility for any infringement of patents or other rights of third parties that may result from use of the module. No license is granted by implication or otherwise under any patent or patent rights.
The information in this Manual is based on Bosch Solar Energy AG knowledge and experience and is believed to be reliable; but such information including product spec- ifications (without limitations) and suggestions do not constitute a warranty, expressed or implied. Bosch Solar Energy AG reserves the right to make changes to the product, specifications or this manual without prior notice.
the Module Data Sheet provided with this product. De- termine local permits, installation and inspection re- quirements before installing module(s). If not otherwise specified, it is recommended that the requirements of the U.S. National Electric Code (NEC) be followed.
This photovoltaic module produces electricity when |
| |
exposed to the sunlight, even at low light levels or when |
| |
| ||
other sources illuminate the front face. The electrical |
| |
hazard from the voltage and current of a single module is |
| |
low. However, the voltage increases as modules are | english | |
connected in series and the available current increases | ||
| ||
as the modules are connected in parallel. Thus, for a |
| |
module connected within a system, contact with electri- |
| |
cally active parts of the module such as terminals can |
| |
| ||
result in lethal shock, sparks, and burns. The only way to |
| |
eliminate this hazard is to prevent exposure of the |
| |
module(s) to light. |

Important Notice!
1 Introduction
This manual contains information regarding installation, operation, maintenance and safety handling of Bosch Solar Energy AG photovoltaic modules. Before installation or using the PV modules, it is important to read this man- ual and understand the instructions carefully.
3 General information
The installation of solar PV modules requires a great degree of skill and DC voltage exceeds 100 V, it only be performed by a qualified licensed professional, including, without limitation, licensed contractors and licensed electricians. The installer assumes the risk of all injury that might occur during installation, including without limitation, the risk of electric shock.
Important Notice!
For your safety and the safety of others, please read the entire Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual carefully prior to installing, wiring, operating and per- forming maintenance of PV modules. Also, carefully read
To avoid the hazard of electric shock and injury when installing, wiring, operating and maintaining the PV mod- ules
Cover the entire front surface of the PV modules with a dense, opaque material such as the cardboard box, during installation and handling of the modules.
Do not expose Back sheet foil directly to sunlight
Work only under dry conditions, with dry modules and tools.
Be sure to completely ground all modules.
Since sparks may occur, do not install the module where flammable gases or vapors are present.
Module installation and operation should be per- formed by qualified personnel only.
Children and unauthorized persons should not be allowed near the installation of PV modules.
Use module for its intended function only.
Be sure that all other system components are compat- ible, and they do not subject the module to mechani- cal or electrical hazards.
Do not touch terminals while module is exposed to light or during installation.
