In addition to the applicable rules and regulations, please follow all guidelines for safe handling
and/or installation of BenQ Solar modules. In addition to the guidelines below, always observe
industry best practices when handling and/or installing any BenQ Solar module. Save this
Installation Guide for future reference.
LIFTING AND HANDLING

LIFTING AND HANDLING
Do not lift the module or carry module by junction box or PV cables.
Do not drill holes in the frame. This will void warranty and may affect frame strength.
Avoid scratching the frame. Scratches to the frame will compromise protective coating
and can result in corrosion or weakened structure.
Do not scratch or damage the module backsheet. Scrathes to the backsheet could affect
module performance.
Do not stand on, drop, scratch or allow objects to hit modules (especially module glass).
Do not install or handle the modules when wet or during periods of high wind.
Do not install the modules where there may be flammable gases or vapors, since sparks
may be produced.
When storing the modules, take steps to cover the DC connectors and prevent dust
from collecting on or in the connectors.
Save these instructions for future reference.
ELECTRICAL HANDLING AND INSTALLATION

ELECTRICAL HANDLING AND INSTALLATION
ELECTRICAL HANDLING AND INSTALLATION
Modules interconnect points conduct direct current (DC) and are sources of voltage
when the module is under load and when it is exposed to light.
Direct current can arc across gaps and may cause injury or death if improper connection
or disconnection is made, or if contact is made with module leads that are frayed, torn
or otherwise damaged.
