IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important safety instructions for the PV
module that must be followed during the maintenance of PV
modules.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not perform any servicing
unless you are qualified to do so.
1. The installation must be performed by a certified installer
/servicer to ensure system integrity and safety.
2. The installation is
understanding of GENERAL INSTALLATION MANUAL and
INSTALLATION MANUAL -PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE-. If
you don't have your personal copy, please contact your
installer or local Sharp office listed in Sharp Solar web site :

3. Do not pull the PV cables.
4. Do not touch any surface of module.
5. Do not place/drop objects onto the PV modules.
6. Do not disassemble or attempt to repair the PV module by
yourself.
7. Do not drop the PV module.
8. Do not damage, pull, bend, or place heavy material on cables.
9. Upon completion of any service or repairs, ask the
installer/servicer to perform routine checks to determine that
the PV modules are in safe and proper operating condition.
1. INTRODUCTION
This Installation Manual contains essential information for the electrical and mechanical installation that you must know before
installing SHARP PV modules. This also contains safety information you need to be familiar with. All the information described in
this manual are the intellectual property of SHARP and based on the technologies and experiences that have been acquired and
accumulated in the long history of SHARP. This document does not constitute a guaranty, expressed or implied. SHARP does
not assume responsibility and expressly disclaims liability for loss, damage, or expense arising out of or in any way connected
with installation, operation, use or maintenance of the PV modules. No responsibility is assumed by SHARP for any infringement
of patents or other rights of third parties that may result from use of PV module. SHARP reserves the right to make changes to
the product, specifications or installation manual without prior notice.

10. When replacement
installer/servicer uses parts specified by the manufacturer with
same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized
substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazard.
11. Consult your local building and safety department for required
permits and applicable regulations.
12. In regions with snow, the module can sustain a snow load of
up to 50cm (when the module is mounted in the portrait
orientation / short frame side facing down) or 100cm (when
and
the module is mounted in the landscape orientation / long
frame side facing down).
13. As a result of sliding snow, the mechanical load increases
when the number of module rows in the matrix of a PV
installation increases. When mounting the module in the
portrait orientation for more than 3 rows, the accumulated
snow load may cause the lower edge of the module frame to
deform. Take necessary measures (e.g. snow stopper) to
avoid possible damage.
14. Periodically remove any overhanging snow and/or ice from the
module framework as it may cause deformation of the module
frame.
CAUTION: HIGH VOLTAGE
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not touch.
3. GENERAL INFORMATION
(INCLUDING WARNING AND SAFETY)
The installation of PV modules requires a great degree of skill
and should only be performed by a qualified licensed
professional, including licensed contractors and licensed
electricians. Please be aware that there is a serious risk of
various types of injury occurring during the installation
including the risk of electric shock. All SHARP PV modules are
equipped with a permanently attached junction box that will
accept variety of wiring applications or with a special cable
assembly for ease of installation, and they do not require
special assembly.
