fully covering their FRONT plus REAR surface with cloth, cardboard, or other completely opaque
non-marking material, or by working with them face down on a smooth, flat surface.
IMPORTANT : MegaCell bifacial modules produce voltage when exposed to light also on back side
o
Do not expose the modules to artificially concentrated sunlight
o
Do not stand on, drop, scratch, or allow objects to fall on the modules.
o
Do not lift the modules by the junction box or junction box cables.
o
Do not install or handle the modules when they are wet or during periods of high winds.
o
Ensure that junction box cables are provided with strain relief to avoid damage to the junction box,
maintaining a minimum bending radius of 50 mm at all locations along the cable.
o
Do not leave cable connectors exposed in adverse climatic conditions. Water and dust deposits
inside the cable connectors can cause long term damage.
o
A module with broken glass, damaged junction box, connectors or cables present electrical safety
hazards and must be removed from service.

Warning: Extreme Danger due to electrical shock!
Solar modules generate electricity. When exposed to light, a voltage occurs, which can be dangerous and
life-threatening. Even though the individual modules generate a relatively low voltage of 50 V DC, the
voltage will accumulate as soon as several modules are connected in series. Modules connected in parallel
result in accumulation of the currents. Although the fully insulated plug contacts are designed to protect
against accidental contact, the following instructions must be followed when handling the solar modules in
order to avoid combustion, spark formation and, above all, fatal electrical shocks:
o
Never insert electrically conducting pieces into the plugs and sockets.
o
Do not wear metallic jewelry during mechanical and electrical installation.
o
Keep the tools and work area dry. Only install solar modules and wires with dry plugs and sockets.
o
Maintain utmost caution and care. When working on the wires, always use both tools and gloves
which are insulated.
o
Do not disassemble the modules. Never remove parts or name plates fitted by the manufacturer.
Only use flawless modules. Do not treat the back side of the modules with sharp objects, paints or
adhesives.
o
Do not expose modules to artificially concentrated sunlight
It is absolutely necessary that the wiring of the modules is only carried out by qualified and authorized
personnel.
