Before & After Installation

Before Installation

Please carefully read this manual before installation.

•Contact with electrically active parts of the panels, such as terminals, may result in burns, sparks and lethal shock whether the panel is connected or disconnected.

•Panels produce voltage even when not connected to an electrical circuit or load.

•Solar module installation and maintenance must be performed by qualified and authorized installer.

•All installation instructions should be read and understood before performing any installation.

•Do not twist, pull, or scratch the cable attached to the solar module.

•Do not touch the solar module with bare hands. Failure to comply may result in a serious burn or injury.

•Do not drop the solar module or place weight on a solar module.

•Do not disassemble the solar module.

•After installation or repair, check that the solar module are operating properly.

•In the event that the currently used solar module or parts have been replaced the newly replaced module and parts must have the same model name and parts as the previously installed solar module.

•Secure all necessary permits and licenses to install the solar modules

•Only qualified and authorized individuals are permitted to treat electrical parts, when there is a breakage, failure or damage of the product or damage of the product.

•Do not use or install broken modules; Failure to comply may result in fire, electric shock, and injury.

•Do not install the module horizontally. Failure to comply may result in excess dirt or white efflorescence (glass disease).

•Panels are not intended for use indoors or on moving vehicles of any kind.

•Reflection from external environments such as snow Reflection from external environments such as snow, water or other surfaces may increase the power generated by the panel.

•Industry standard rated specifications are made at conditions of 1000W/m 2 irradiance and 25 °C (77ºF) solar cell temperature. Colder temperatures may substantially increase voltage and power.

•Keep the solar module and system away from children at all times.

•Keep the module packed in the carton until the time of installation.

•Keep flammable gasses away from the installation site.

•Do not work alone. Please work as part of a team of two or more people.

•Safety harness use is strongly recommended for installation.

•Partial shadowing may substantially reduce panel and system output.

•Care must be taken to avoid low tilt angles which may cause dirt to buildup on the glass against the frame edge.

•Dirt build-up on the surface of the panel may cause active solar cells to be shaded and electrical performance to be impaired.

•Always keep the back surface of the panel free from any foreign objects or structural elements which could come into contact with the panel.

After Installation

•Plug in the connector tightly and ensure that the wiring properly works.

•Conduct periodic inspection of the panels for damage to front glass, back sheet, frame, junction box, or external electrical connections.

•Check electrical connections for loose connections and corrosion.

•Removal of dirt from the front glass can increase output.

•Water, ethanol or a conventional glass cleanser with a micro-fiber cloth can be used for regular washing or rinsing of the front glass to remove dust, dirt or other deposits.

•Aggressive and abrasive cleansers or chemicals such as alkali chemicals including ammonia based solution should not be used on cleaning the module.

•Always wear rubber gloves for electrical insulation while maintaining, washing or cleaning panels.

•Deposits of foreign material on the frame surface can be cleaned by using a wet sponge or cloth and dried in air or by using a clean chamois.

•Perform the wiring work by connecting the connector and wires to the stand away from the roof or ground.

Electrical Installation

Danger

•Avoid all electrical hazards when installing, wiring, operating and maintaining all panels.

•Do not connect panels that have different electrical properties or physical configurations in the same system.

•Match the polarities of cables and terminals when making the connections; failure to do so may result in damage to the panel.

•The rating of the over-current device shall not exceed the maximum series fuse rating marked on the name plate.

•The panel contains factory installed bypass diodes located inside the junction box.

•When installing the system, it is recommended to install a lightning rod to protect the system.
