Chint Solar’s modules are designed to meet the
requirements of IEC61215 and IEC61730, and they
have been qualified for Application Class A
(equivalent to Safety Class II requirements).
Modules can be applied to publicly accessible
systems operating at greater than 50V DC or 240W.
The module design complies with IEC61730 and
UL61730 standards and meets Class C fire rating
(IEC61730), type 4 fire rating (UL61730).

WARNING
Read and understand all safety instructions before
installing, wiring, handling, and/or maintaining PV
modules. PV modules generate direct current
electricity when they are exposed to sunlight or other
light sources. Whether the module is connected or not,
direct contact with the live part of the module such as
the wiring terminal may cause personal injury or even
death.
3.1
General safety
Before installation, please contact the relevant local
authority to make sure the installation permit and
installation inspection requirements can meet the
local requirements. The installation process should
comply with the safety rules applicable to all
components in the system, including cables,
terminals, charging monitors, batteries, inverters,
etc.
Installation and maintenance must be completed by
professionally qualified electricians. During the
installation, wear safety helmets, insulating gloves,
safety shoes and use insulating tools to avoid the
direct contact with a DC voltage of 30V or even
higher.
When installing or operating PV modules on rainy
days or dewy mornings, take appropriate protective
measures to prevent moisture from penetrating the
connectors. Unauthorized personnel are prohibited
from approaching the installation area or PV
module storage area.
It is forbidden to install or use damaged PV
modules.
It is forbidden to repair PV modules by
unauthorized personnel, including but not limited
to replacing any part of PV modules (such as
diodes, junction boxes, connectors, etc.).
It is forbidden to plug in connectors of different
types and models.
It is forbidden to expose PV modules to the
following substances: grease or organic ester
compounds (e.g. DOP, plasticizers), aromatics,
phenols, ketones, halogenated substances, mineral
oil, alkanes (e.g. gasoline, cleaning lubricants,
electronic resurrection agents), alcohol, , adhesive
sheets that can generate oxime gas and potting glue
(only
for
connectors,
such
as
KE200,
CX-200/chemlok, etc.), TBP (plasticizer), detergent,
etc., to avoid chemical damage and affect the
electrical safety performance of PV modules.
Photovoltaic module installation is prohibited on
windy days.
Avoid focusing sunlight on PV modules.
It is forbidden to place PV modules near equipment
or where flammable gas may be generated.
It is forbidden to install PV modules on movable
platform, excepting tracking systems.
