4.1.1.
Insulating back sheet
The insulating back sheet in some aleo modules protects
against the effects of weather and helps the electrical
insulation.
WARNING
A damaged rear-side insulating foil can cause
electric shock.
A damaged insulating back sheet can also
cause short-circuits or ground faults which
may in turn cause fires.
NOTICE
Ensure that this back sheet remains undamaged.
Prevent the module rear side from coming into
contact with sharp or pointed objects.
A damaged insulating back sheet can cause
permanent damage to the solar module (e.g.
delamination).
Any damages should be immediately repaired by aleo solar or
authorised specialists.
4.2.
Electrical precautionary measures
Always heed the following warnings when handling solar
modules:
DANGER
Do not touch the electrical connections or other
live parts of a solar module directly or with a
conductive object (e.g. an uninsulated tool)! There
is a risk of suffering a dangerous electric shock.
This particularly applies if the module has already
been electrically connected. If numerous modules
are connected in a row, the voltages add up.
This can still occur even if the current of the
photovoltaic generator has been switched off.
WARNING
Solar modules create electrical voltage even with low
exposure to light. In very unfavourable situations, the
voltage of a single solar module can be enough to
cause an electric shock ([31]).
CAUTION
The voltages of modules add up when
modules are connected in series. Such a
series connection can create very high
voltages.
In a parallel connection the module currents
add up. Even a single module can generate a
significant current.
