2.0 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warning:
All instructions should be read and understood before attempting to install, wire,
operate and/or maintain the module. Module interconnects pass direct current (DC) when it is
exposed to sunlight or other light sources. Contact with electrically active parts of the module,
such as terminals, can result in injury or death, whether the module is connected or
disconnected.
General Safety
All installations must be performed in compliance with all applicable regional and local electrical codes or
other national or international electrical standards.
Wear suitable protection (non-slip gloves, clothes, etc.) to prevent direct contact with 30VDC or greater, and
to protect your hands from sharp edges during the installation.
Use electrical insulated tools to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Remove all metallic jewelry prior to install
ation
to reduce the chance of accidental exposure to live circuits.
Cover the front of the modules in the PV array with an opaque material to halt production of electricity when
installing or working with a module or wiring.
Do not install or handle the modules when they are wet or during periods of high wind.
Do not use or install broken modules.
If the front glass is broken, or the back sheet is torn, contact with any module surface or the frame can cause
electric shock.
Keep the junction box cover closed at all times.
Do not attempt to repair any part of the module. There’re no serviceable parts within the PV module.
Do not disassemble
a
module or remove any module part.
Do not artificially concentrate sunlight on a module.
Do not connect or disconnect modules when current from the modules or an external source is present.
3.0 MECHANICAL / ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS
The module electrical ratings are measured under Standard Test Conditions (STC) of 1 kW/m
2
irradiance with
an AM1.5 spectrum, and cell temperature of 25°C, according to the IEC61215 certification. The detailed electrical
and mechanical characteristics of Photowatt crystalline silicon PV modules can be found in table 3 of this manual
(see Annex). Main electrical characteristics at STC also appear on each module label. The maximum system
voltage for all module series is 1000 V.
Under certain conditions, a module may produce more current or voltage than its Standard Test Conditions
rated power.
As
a precaution, a module's open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current at STC should be multiplied
y 1.25 when determining component ratings and capacities. An additional 1.25 multiplier for a short-circuit
