thus damaging the module. Bypass diodes are used in
the module to protect it from such high reverse cur-
rent. All modules of these series already have bypass
diodes integrated into the junction box. In the improb-
able case of a diode failure, it can be easily replaced.
Request the type of diode required for
replacement from Luxor, stating the type of
module and the serial number.
5.2 troublEshooting at low VoltagE
First of all, determine whether this is normal or exces-
sive low voltage.
In the case of normal low voltage there is a drop in
the open circuit voltage in the module, caused by a
temperature increase of the solar cells or lower radia-
tion density.

Caution!
Danger of electric shock!
Please observe the safety instructions for
working with direct current.
Caution!
Danger of electric shock!
Never disconnect the module under load.
Before working on the PV system, disconnect
the AC and DC inverter circuits. Cover the
module fully with a non-transparent material
during installation to avoid the generation of
current.
For systems with more than two in-series modules,
high counter-current may flow through shaded solar
cells, if only part of the module is affected by shade
while the other part is exposed to sunlight. This cur-
rent flow can cause the affected cells to overheat,
