Preface 

The solar modules use the photovoltaic principle to turn light into electricity. 
PerfectEnergy solar modules are primarily designed for connection to an inverter to feed the energy into 
the public power grid.  
When connecting to an inverter, please observe the instructions of the inverter-manufacturer. 
When connecting to a charge controller, please observe the instructions of the manufacturer of the charge 
controller and accumulator. 

These instructions contain information about safe handling and about the installation of framed solar 
modules by Perfectenergy in outdoor open spaces (fields) or on flat or tilted roofs. They are only for 
specialists, who are familiar with the installation due to their vocational qualification, and they contain 
safety-relevant instructions for the assembly, connection and maintenance of the solar modules.  
 

Important Notice:

 The installation of the solar modules and especially the electrical installation may only be 

carried out by personnel with electro-technical qualifications. Appropriately qualified technicians must 
always be deployed to service the units or remedy faults during operation. 

 
The installation techniques, handling and use of this product are beyond company control. For this reason, 
Perfectenergy accepts no liability for damage arising through improper use or incorrect installation, 
operation, use and maintenance. 

Please read these instructions carefully before handling the solar modules and familiarize yourself with the 
safety information. After the modules have been installed, hand over these instructions to the operator of 
the PV-system for safe-keeping.
