1.1 CAUTIONS REGARDING INSTALLATION OF SOLAR POWER
SYSTEMS
This manual contains critical information regarding electrical and mechanical
installation and safety information which you should know before starting
installation.
The information in this manual is based on CHINALIGHT’s knowledge and experience,
however, the information and suggestions do not constitute a warranty.
CHINALIGHT reserves the right to make changes to the product, specifications, or
manual without prior notice.
Do not locate systems near coastal locations or other salt water locations or C5
locations as classified by ISO. Minimum distance is 0.3 miles from the body of water.
Do not locate in a corrosion prone area. The modules and system are TUV listed to
standard IEC61215. The TUV IEC61215 test is performed at 1.5 times the design load
of 30 lbs per square foot, or 45 lbs per square foot. The system has been load tested
by CHINALIGHT to 50 PSF. Building departments often require a design safety factor
of 1.5 or greater for structures. The maximum structural loading listed in this guide,
does not include an added safety factor. Check with your local building department
for code information.
