ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
General installation
•
Any hardware used must be compatible with the mounting structure material to avoid galvanic corrosion.
•
It is not recommended to use modules with different configurations in the same system.
•
Several modules should be connected in series to form a string of modules if needed. The maximum number of series
connected modules is 5.
•
MC-4 connector is the recommended connector and the recommended system wires size is AWG12.
ASSEMBLY OF PV-WIRE
1. The PV-wire should be single-pole, double insulated solar cable, the length of which is due to the distance from
PV-modules to outdoor unit of AC, the recommended conductor cross section is AWG 12, and it should accord
with UL4703
2. The MC-4 connectors should be assembled to the PV-wires, and the other side of the PV-wires should be
assembled with spade terminals.
