INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL SOLAR MODULES Q.PEAK DUO-G9.X – Q CELLS

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL SOLAR MODULES Q.PEAK DUO-G9.X – Q CELLS

Validity

These instructions are only valid for crystalline solar modules from 
the company Q CELLS as specified at chapter „2.1 Technical 
Specifications“. 
Q CELLS assumes no liability for damage resulting 
from failure to observe these instructions.

 

Ä

Please observe the wiring and dimensioning of the system.

 

Ä

The installer of the system is responsible for compliance with all 
necessary safety regulations during set-up and installation.

Q CELLS assumes no liability on the basis of these instructions. 
Q CELLS is only liable in the context of contractual agreements 
or in the context of accepted guarantees. Q CELLS accepts no 
other responsibility for the functionality and safety of the modules.

 

Ä

Please observe the instructions for any other system compo-
nents that may be part of the complete solar power system. 
It may be necessary to carry out a structural analysis for the 
entire project.

Additional information for the Operator

 

Ä

Please keep this manual for the entire life of the solar power 
system.

 

Ä

Please contact your system supplier for information concerning 
the formal requirements for solar power systems.

 

Ä

Please be sure to contact the relevant local authorities and 
energy providers regarding regulations and permit requirements 
prior to installation of the solar power system. Your financial 
success depends on the fulfillment of these requirements.
