  • Page 9 SunRise – Installation Manual Installation Step 2. Positioning The SunRise is designed to be a freestanding weatherproof system. However, we strongly recommend it to be placed outdoors and close (300mm) to a wall in a shaded area to reduce the chances of overheating. It should also be placed as close as possible to the solar panels and the MSB to minimise voltage drop/power loss.
