Terminal lug requirements:
☐ Use tin-plated terminal lugs only.
☐ For the connection, only the supplied screws, washers and nuts must be used.
☐ The terminal lugs must be designed according to the temperature. Temperature: +95°C
☐ The width of the terminal lugs must exceed the washer diameter. The diameter of the washers for M12 screws is
32 mm. The diameter of the washers for M8 screws is 20 mm. This will ensure that the defined torques are
effective over the whole surface.
Cable requirements:
☐ The DC cables must be designed for the maximum PV voltage and must have double or reinforced insulation.
☐ No more than two cables must be connected to each DC terminal.
☐ Use copper or aluminum cables only.
☐ Maximum cable cross-section: 400 mm².
☐ Terminal lugs: M12 or M8
