Danger! Risk of fatal injury due to electric 
shock! 

 

Ä

Be sure to maintain the time intervals as 
specified by the inverter manufacturer between 
switching off the inverter and beginning any 
further work.

Danger! Risk of fatal injury due to electric 
shock! 

 

Ä

Never plug or unplug the cable when under 
load. Modules must not carry any current.

1.

 Switch off the inverter.

2.

 Switch off the DC circuit breaker.

3.

 Measure shutdown in DC String. 

(no DC current flow).

4.

 Disconnect plugs by the use of appropriate 

and qualified tools of the manufacturer.

5.

 When connecting the modules proceed in 

reverse order.

Danger! Risk of fatal injury due to electric 
shock! 

 

Ä

Electrical work may only be performed by 
qualified and skilled personnel (see page 3).

 

Ä

Ensure correct polarity.

 

Ä

Use solar cables for the connection at the 
junction box outlet. 

 

Ä

Use the same, inverter-compatible plugs.

 

Ä

Use minimum 4 mm

2

 copper wires insulated for 

a minimum of 90 °C for field connections.

Note! Module damage may occur!

 

Ä

Ensure that the cabling is not under mechanical 
stress (Comply with bending radius of ≥ 60 mm).

 

Ä

Ensure that the cables do not run between module 
and mounting rail or structure (danger of pinch).

 

Ä

Do not connect modules with different 
orientations or angles of inclination in the same 
string.

 

Ä

Ensure for a tight connection between the 
plugs. Plugs click together audibly.
