5.6.1 Preparation of the material

Before to fix the panels side by side be sure that the bushings are fixed according to the
chapter 3.3.1 at page 11.
• Clean the insulation on the busbar sections with a soft, dry cloth, and check for insulation damage.
Remove greasy or adhesive dirt as described in section 7.3;
• Busbar connections:
- The silver plated surfaces of the connections must be cleaned with a metal-free non-woven
cleaning cloth and thinly and by appling a thin layer of mechanical grease;
- The non-silver plated surfaces of the connections are either brushed with a wire brush, preserving
the grease film, or cleaned with a metal-free non-woven cleaning cloth and evenly greased with a
thin layer of mechanical grease;
• Prepare insulating covers 58 and lids 58.5 (figure 3, 67, 68) to suit the relevant busbar connections
and thread them onto the busbar. (For insulated busbars only).
