All instructions should be read and understood before attempting to install, wire, operate and
maintain the module.
Don’t lift up PV modules using the attached cables or the junction box.
Do not touch live terminals with bare hands. Use insulated tools for electrical connections.
All PV systems must be grounded to earth. If there is no special regulation, please follow the National
Electrical Code or other national code.
Under normal conditions, a photovoltaic module is likely to experience conditions that produce more
current and/or voltage than reported at standard test conditions. Accordingly, the value of Isc and
Voc marked on the module should be multiplied by 1.25 when determining PV system component
voltage ratings, conductor current ratings, fuse sizes, and size of controls connected to the PV output.
Once the PV module has been shipped to the installation site, all of the parts should be unpacked
properly with care.
Do not stand or step on the PV module like below pictures show. This is prohibited and there is a
risk of damage to the module and cause injury for you.
Only PV modules with the same cell size should be connected in series.
During transporting modules, please attempt to minimize shock or vibration to the module, as this
may damage the module or lead to cell micro cracks.
During all transportation situations, never drop the module from a vehicle, house or hands. This will
damage module.
Do not clean the glass with chemicals. Only use tap water. Make sure the module surface
temperature is cool to the touch. Cleaning modules with cool water when module surface temp is
high may result in glass breakage.
