is damaged or weathered, 

glass is cracked, or housing 

is opened, have the problem 

corrected before further use.

note:

  It is normal to see up to 20% 

degradation in amorphous silicon 

solar panel performance within the 

first 6 months before the amorphous 

coating stabilizes.

cleaning

Clean and inspect the solar panel 

system 

MOnThLY

, or more 

frequently to maintain peak efficiency:

1. 

Wear electrically insulated gloves
