Wiring the Solar Panel to the Sign
The solar panel should be angled 15 degrees above the latitude of
the installation site. For example, if the latitude of the installation
site is 45 degrees then the solar panel should be installed at an
angle of 60 degrees, as shown.
You can easily obtain the latitude of the installation site from
mapping software or for free by doing an internet search for
"latitude
your_city
" where
your_city
is the name of the city or
region where the panel is being installed.
Wiring the Solar Panel to the Sign
As shown in the following images, the solar panel and the sign come pre-wired with connectors that allow
for a simple installation. The red (male) and black (female) connectors from the sign need to be connected to
corresponding connectors on the solar panel.
