General Installation Manual for BaoDing Lightway Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd
.
Photovoltaic Modules
Please read this manual completely before installing or using the Lightway modules.
Thank you for choosing BaoDing Lightway Green Energy Technology Co., Ltd. Photovoltaic modules. With
proper operation and maintenance, Lightway Green new energy PV modules will provide you with clean,
renewable solar electricity for many years. Retain this manual for reference. This manual contains important
installation, maintenance and safety information. Retain this installation manual for future reference. The word
“module” as used in this manual refers to one or more photovoltaic modules.
General Information
The installation of solar modules requires a great degree of skill and should only be performed by qualified
licensed professionals, including, without limitation, licensed contractors and licensed electricians.
Warning
⊙
All instructions should be read and understood before attempting to install, wire operate and maintain the
photovoltaic module. Contact with
e
lectrically active parts of the module such as
terminals can result in burns,
sparks, and lethal shock whether the module is connected or disconnected.
⊙
The installer assumes the risk of all injury that might occur during installation, including, without limitation, the
risk of electric shock.
⊙
PV modules generate DC electrical energy when exposed to sunlight or other light sources. Although single
modules produce only a low voltage and current, shocks and burns are still a potential hazard.
⊙
To avoid the hazard of electric shock and injury, cover all over the front surface of PV modules with a dense
opaque material such as the cardboard box during installing and handling modules.
⊙
The shock hazard increases as modules are connected in parallel producing higher current. The shock hazard
increases as modules are connected in series producing higher voltages. A nominal open voltage or maximum
system voltage of 45 V or more may cause an electric shock.
⊙
To avoid the hazard of electric shock, work only under dry conditions, with dry module and tools.
⊙
Do not stand or step on a module to avoid the hazard of injury and the damage to a module.
⊙
Do not damage the back sheet of a module, to avoid the hazard of electric shocks and fire.
⊙
To avoid the hazard of electric shock and injury, Children and unauthorized persons should not be allowed near
the installation of the solar cell modules.
⊙
To avoid the hazard of electric shock and injury ,do not disconnect during load connection.
⊙
To avoid the hazard of electric shock and injury, be sure to ground the modules completely.
⊙
To avoid the hazard of electric shock, fire and injury, do not disassemble the module, or remove any part
installed by the manufacturer.
⊙
Unauthorized persons should not open the cover of the junction box to avoid the hazard of electric shock.
⊙
Do not touch terminals while a module(s) is exposed to light. Provide suitable guards to prevent yourself
contacting directly with 30 VDC or greater to avoid the hazard of electric shock or injury.
⊙
When carrying a module, more than two persons should carry it by the frame and wear non-slip gloves to avoid
the hazard of injury by slipping down the module on a foot or cutting by an edge of the frame and so on.
⊙
Do not carry a module by wire or junction box to avoid the hazard of electric shock and injury or any troubles in
a module, which it may cause.
⊙
Do not drop anything on the surfaces of modules to avoid the hazard of electric shock and injury or any troubles,
