Correct connection of the grounding wire [USA]
}
Observe the allowable minimum bending
radius for the type of wire used.
}
Never open electrical connections or un-
plug connectors while the circuit is under
load.
}
Cable conduits should be used in locations
where the wiring is accessible to children
or small animals.
Electrical connections to the module
}
Fully cover the module with an
opaque material during
mechanical and electrical
installation.
}
Protect the wiring against damage.
}
Grounding must be performed in compli-
ance with all national standards and regu-
lations (see “Selecting the proper support
frame“, page 4).
}
Connecting a module to a battery with
the leads reversed (reversed polarity) can
cause:
<
damage to the bypass diode in the
module,
<
a risk of explosion due to excessive gas
generation in the battery.
Grounding
Ground the modules and the support frame.
Modules with frames have a predrilled hole
in the lateral frame member for fitting a
No. 10 self-threading clamping screw and
washer. [USA]

Note, some CR boxes do not have the
“handle“ configuration as shown here.

}
If the ground wire is not fitted with a ring
lug, first insert the clamping screw with the
dished washer into the drilled hole.
}
Strip 16 mm of insulation from the end
of the conductor, and pass the bare wire
between the head of the screw and the
washer.
}
Finally, tighten the screw.

Note, some S junction boxes have 2 cable
glands.
