Operation 

According to local regulations it might be necessary to contact authorities before the PV system is 
connected to the grid. Also check if this has to be performed by authorized personnel. 

Inspection and Maintenance 

It is recommended to have a visual check on a regular basis (quarterly). Plan check-ups according to 
the given environmental and safety conditions and regulations. 

 

Remove dust and dirt (sediments, leaves, pollen, bird droppings, etc.) from the surface.  

 

Do not use aggressive cleaning agents or scrubbing materials for cleaning 

 

Do not use steam blasting for cleaning. 

 

Use soft water to avoid chalk stains 

 

Soft Sponges can be used 

 

Check if connectors and grounding are tight and without corrosion and if the insulation is not 
damaged also check for loose mechanical or electrical contacts.  

 

Check if the Junction Box is securely attached and that no deep scratches are penetrating the 
frontsheet
