4. Safety
Please ensure all necessary measures are taken to prevent accidents. The use of SF modules in applications that may endanger
human lives is prohibited, including in air and road transport systems. SF modules must not be used for anything other than their
expressed purpose.
Solar Frontier strongly advises you to follow the instructions below in order to avoid bodily injury, damage to property and/or death.
4.1 General Safety
• Installation, wiring, and maintenance of SF modules must only be carried out by licensed and trained persons.
• Ensure that all instructions and information related to SF modules and other balance of system components are fully
understood prior to handling and installing a PV solar system.
• Wear appropriate protection and take all necessary precautions to prevent electric shock, especially when DC voltage
exceeds 30 VDC.
• The front surface of SF modules shall be covered with an opaque material during installation to decrease the
potential of electrical shock.
• SF modules only generate direct current (DC) electricity.
• SF modules do not have the ability to store electricity.
• SF modules will experience higher voltage when connected in series and higher electrical current when connected in parallel.
• Only interconnect SF modules with similar electrical characteristic in series or in parallel to prevent system
imbalance conditions and module damage.
• The PV array open-circuit voltage must never exceed the maximum system voltage (including in low temperature conditions).
• Leakage currents could create a shock hazard or fire.
• Do not disconnect operational modules or electrical arcing may occur. This may result in serious bodily harm or death.
• Do not use SF modules for purposes other than terrestrial power generation to prevent electrical shock,
fire or other accidents.
• Do not artificially concentrate sunlight on modules using lenses or mirrors.
• Do not use any light sources other than natural sunlight and general illumination for power generation
• Do not use SF modules in water or liquid. There is a serious risk of electric shock, an electric leak or an accident.
• The level of leakage current must be limited in accordance with local regulations for safety reasons.
• Carefully check the polarity of the wiring before installing. Incorrect wiring may damage SF modules or appliances.
• Only use equipment, connectors, wiring and support frames suitable for solar electric systems.
5. Storage and Transport
Please follow the instructions on the module packaging when storing and transporting SF modules. Ensure that each module is ad-
equately supported and always stored in dry conditions. The module packaging is not waterproof material. Keep the wiring box (junc-
tion box) and the module connector away from any liquids when storing and transporting SF modules. SF modules should be kept
in the original packaging until final installation. Small amounts of white powder from packaging material may adhere to the modules.
This may safely be ignored and has no affect on performance.
