SAFETY

All instructions and safety information should be read and understood before attempting to handle, install,

or electrically connect First Solar modules. Failure to follow safety, installation, and handling instructions
may result in injury. Only qualified personnel should install, operate, or maintain PV modules or systems.

Series 6 CuRe modules are designed for 1000 V systems at altitudes up to 5000 m (16404 ft) per IEC

61730 and 4000 m (13123

ft) per UL 61730. Series 6 CuRe modules are designed for 1500 VDC systems

at altitudes up to 3000 m (9842 ft) per IEC 61730 and 2000 m (6561 ft) per UL 61730.

Select installation locations and module support structures to ensure modules and connectors (open or

mated) are never submerged in standing water.

DANGER

Series 6 CuRe modules may produce up to 280 Volts DC (VDC) and up to 4.0 A when exposed to

sunlight. The danger increases as modules are connected together in series and/or parallel.

A single module or multiple interconnected modules can create a lethal shock hazard during

daylight hours, including periods of low light levels

DANGER

To avoid fire and/or injury

due to ground faults and associated electrical hazards:

►

Do not unplug PV module connections while under load. Do not disconnect the module

connectors during daylight hours unless the module is in an open circuit condition.

►

Replace modules with damaged wires immediately. Keep all array wiring out of reach of

non-qualified personnel.

►

Do not concentrate light on the module in an attempt to increase power output.

►

Never allow the PV array system voltage to exceed 1500 VDC under any condition.

►

Replace broken modules immediately.

►

Repair ground faults immediately.

►

Do not work on modules or systems when the modules or wiring is wet.

►

All building mounted PV systems should utilize Ground Fault Detector Interrupters (GFDI)

and ARC Fault Circuit Interrupters to minimize risk of electrical shocks and fires.

Series 6 CuRe modules have a maximum overcurrent protection rating of 5.0 A as defined by IEC/UL

61730-1 and IEC/UL 61730-2. PV systems should be designed to comply with and provide module
overcurrent protection consistent with local codes.
