blocking the solar cells on the back of the module. The open area should minimize arc coil, which
can reduce the risk of induced lightning impact on PV module.
Do not install modules under rain, snow or windy conditions.
If installing or operate modules after rain or in the morning dew, appropriate
protective measures need to be taken to prevent water vapor from penetrating
into the connector.
Do not allow unauthorized persons to access the installation area.
When installing with scaffolding, make sure that the scaffolding is in a stable position or with anti-
dumping measures, and that the installer should wear a safety belt in accordance with local building
codes.
It is recommended not to stand on the bottom side of the inclined surface of the module during
installation, to prevent the module from slipping and causing casualty.
Please keep the PV module packed in the carton until installation and install them immediately after
unpacking.
Do not wear metallic jewelry which can cause electric shock during installation.
During installation and wiring of PV modules, please use opaque material to cover the PV module
surface completely.
Installation work must be carried out by at least two persons.
Do not stand on the module glass while working. There is a risk of injury or electric shock if the glass
is broken.
Do not loosen or unscrew the screws/clamps/rails of and around the PV module, which may lead to
a reduction of the module's load rating and even fall off.
Do not drop any tools or other objects on the module front- or backside which could cause damage
(visible or non-visible) to the module.
Do not install or use damaged modules. If the surface glass is damaged or worn, direct contact with
the surface of the module may cause electric shock.
Do not damage the backsheet or glass of modules when fastening the modules to the bracket with
bolts.
Do not drill additional holes on any part of the module. Doing so will void the warranty.
The drain holes on the module frame must not be blocked in any situation during the installation and
operation.
Do not unplug the connector if the system circuit is connected to a load.
Modules with different colors should be avoided to install on the same rooftop or in the same array.
