1500V Modules

1500/ (1.25*Voc) 

 

The  recommended  maximum  parallel  module  configuration  is  Ifuse/Isc  +1  parallels. 

And the number of modules have something to do with system design parameters such 

as current or power output. 

 

The number of modules have something to do with system design parameters such as 

current or power output. 

 

Please refer to local regulations to determine the system wires size, type and temperature. 

 

To  prevent  the  cables  and  the  connectors  from  overheating,  the  cross  section  of  the 

cables and the capacity of the connectors must be selected to suit the maximum system 

short  circuit  current  (The  recommended  cable  cross  section  is  4mm2  for  a  single 

module and if rated current of a connector is 

higher than 10A). Please note that the upper 

limit  temperature  of  cable  is  85°C, and  that  of  the  connector is 105°C. And  all the cables 

diameter that been used for wiring must reach at least 4 mm2.

 

 

The DC current generated by photovoltaic systems can be converted into AC and fed 

into a public grid. As local utilities’ policies on connecting renewable energy systems 

to their grids vary from region to region. A qualified system designer or integrator 

should always be consulted. Building permits, inspections and approvals by the local 

utility are generally required. 

4.2 Earthing and Grounding 

 

Where common grounding hardware (nuts, bolts, star washers, spilt-ring lock washers, 

flat  washers  and  the  like)  is  used  to  attach  a  listed  grounding/bonding  device,  the 

attachment must be made in conformance with the grounding device manufacturer’s 

instructions.” 

 

For grounding and bonding requirements, please refer to regional and national safety 

and electricity standards. If grounding is required, use a recommended connector type, 

or an equivalent, for the grounding wire. 

 

If grounding is required, the grounding wire must be properly fastened to the module 

frame to assure adequate electrical connection.
