and current ratings of the
Solar Controller
ADDITIONAL SAFETY
CONSIDERATIONS
The total current of the solar system is the sum of the short circuit current of the solar
panels in parallel, multiplied by a safety factor of 1.25. The resulting system current is not
to exceed the amperage rating of the controller. The voltage of the array is the rated open
circuit voltage of the solar panels and is not to exceed 28volts.
The current rating of the solar system is the sum of the Maximum Power Current (Imp) of the
solar PV strings in parallel. The resulting system Imp current is not to exceed 30A. If your
solar system exceeds these ratings, contact your dealer for a suitable controller alternative.
• All installations must be performed in compliance with the National Electrical C ode
(NEC) and applicable local codes
• In Canada, installations must comply with CSA C22.1, Safety Standard for Electrical

result in electric shock
• Damaged hardware (junction boxes, cables and connectors) represent shock and lacer-
ation hazards. Remove these modules from service and contact Go Power! for disposal
instructions
• Cracked or damaged metal ribbons in the panel are an electrical hazard. Remove modules
from service and contact Go Power! for disposal instructions
