for the module as per data sheet. And Tmin: refer to the lowest ambient Temperature. 

 

The voltage is proportional to the number of series. In case of parallel connection please 

be sure to take proper measure (e.g. fuse for protection of module and cable form over 

current, and /or blocking diode for prevention of unbalanced strings voltage) to block 

the reverse current flow. The current may easily flow in a reverse direction. 

 

If more than 2 PV Modules or sting of Modules connected in parallel a PV Fuse with a 

rating    of 15A shall be used for both negative and positive side and in accordance with 

IEC 62446 & IEC60346 and their associated codes. 

 

Be careful! Always check the module label to confirm the actual rating of your product 

before making connections whether it is 1000Vdc or 1500Vdc. 

 

It is recommended to use a suitably rated isolator (DC switch) to interrupt the current flow 

before disconnecting the connectors. 

 

HANDLING SAFETY 

 

Do not cause an excessive load on the surface of PV module or twist the frame. The glass 

surface can easily break. 

 

Do not stand or step on the PV module. The glass surface of PV is slippery and that would 

cause microcracks in cells which affect the power generation. 

 

Do not hit or put excessive load on the glass or in the Backsheet, it is vulnerable. 

 

Do not hit the terminal box or do not pull the cables. The terminal box can crack and 

break. 

 

Never touch the terminal box or the end of output cables with bare hands when the PV 

module  is  irradiated.  Cover  the  surface  of  PV  module  with  clothes  or  other  suitable 

sufficiently opaque material to isolate the PV module from incident light and handle the 

wires with rubber-gloved hands to avoid electric   shock. 

 

To make positive electrical contact with the frame. The ground wire must be considered 

within the requirement of local and regulation at the site of installation. 

 

The ground wire cross-sectional area (4-14) mm

2

, the minimum size of ground wire (6-12) 

AWG  (solid  bare  copper)  per  Table  250.122  of  NEC  code.  Conductor  Type:  Copper 

Material-

Color of wire: Green color with yellow stripe. • Do not drill holes in the frame. It 

may compromise the frame strength and cause corrosion of the   frame. 

 

Do not scratch the insulation coating of the frame (except for grounding connection. it 

may cause corrosion of the frame or compromise the framework strength.
