DANGER
► Electrical connection to the building services must be carried out by a
qualified electrician.
► Cables and plug-in connectors must not be disconnected under load.
Observe the electrical ratings of all the equipment in the system.
The connecting box with integrated bypass diode has both a MC-T4 socket and a
MC-T4 plug.
The plug-in connections must be locked into place and secured . Fix the cable on
the module frame or installation system. The minimum permissible cable cross
section is 2.5 mm
2
Only MC-T4-compatible plug-in connectors and special solar cables can be used
for the electrical connection or for connecting the PV modules. These must be
designed in accordance with the electrical requirements of the PV module circuit
connection. Appropriate prepared strung cables can be purchased from Schüco.
WARNING
► In the first six weeks after commissioning, the
electrical output of MPE modules in the AL
series is approx. 18% higher than that specified
on the classification plate.
► This must be taken into account for the layout
of the inverters.
► Under normal conditions, a photovoltaic
module may produce higher current and/or
voltage than given in standard test conditions.
Accordingly, the values of I
SC
and V
OC
marked
on this module should be multiplied by a factor
of 1.25 to determine component voltage
ratings, conductor current ratings, fuse sizes,
and size of controls to be connected to the PV
output.
When connecting the modules in series, the maximum system voltage must not
be exceeded. When connecting the modules in parallel, the maximum permissible
current of each component must not be exceeded.
The use of an appropriate DC fuse is recommended for each string.
WARNING
► To reduce indirect lightning strikes, when laying
the string cables the area of the loops must be
kept as small as possible.
