IMPORTANT
This should be the last
wiring connection made in the solar cir-
cuit. (DC disconnect must be OFF when connection
photovoltaic module to circuit. Never open electrical
connections or unplug connectors while the circuit is
under load.
IMPORTANT
The AC and DC grounding sys-
tems for a photovoltaic system, where both are
present, should tie to a common grounding elec-
trode or grounding system.
NOTE
Solar electric modules have no on/off switch. Modules can
be rendered inoperative only by removing them from light. (Fully
cover the front module surface with opaque material or wor
k
ing with
the module face down on a smooth, flat surface).
