5.0 MODULE INSTALLATION
Precautions and General Safety
Before installing modules, contact the appropriate authorities for site, installation and
inspection permission and requirement.
Check applicable building codes to ensure that the construction or structure (roof,
facade, support, etc.) can withstand the module system load.
When installing the modules, please ensure the assembly is mounted over a fire resistant roof covering rated
for the application. EDF ENR PWT modules have been listed as Class C according to UL790 standard.
The fire rating of this module is valid only when mounted in the manner specified in the
mechanical mounting instructions.
CAUTION: In any case DO NOT STAND OR STEP on the modules, as localized high
loads may induce severe micro-cracks at the cell level, which in turn may compromise
module reliability. Failure to comply with above caution will void EDF ENR PWT
warranty.
Environmental conditions
The module is intended for use in general open climates, as defined in IEC 60721-2-1: Classification of
environmental conditions Part 2-1: Environmental conditions appearing in nature - temperature and
humidity.
Do not install modules near naked flames or flammable materials.
Do not expose modules to artificially concentrated light sources.
