Page 2 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY Restar Solar Renewable Energy Co.,Ltd shall not be held responsible for damages of any kind, including – without limitation – bodily harm, injury or damage to property, in connection with handling PV modules, system installation, or compliance or non-compliance with the instructions set forth in this manual.
Page 3 MECHANICAL / ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS Module electrical ratings are measured under Standard Test Conditions (STC) of 1000 W/m irradiance, with an AM1.5 spectrum, and a cell temperature of 25°C. Detailed electrical and mechanical characteristics of Restar Solar Renewable Energy Co.,Ltd crystalline silicon PV modules specifications can be found on www.restarsolar.com Main electrical characteristics under STC are also stated on each module label.
Page 4 · The module is intended for use in general open-air climates, environmental conditions appearing in nature Temperature and humidity. · Please consult the Restar Solar Renewable Energy Co.,Ltd technical support department for more information on the use of modules in special climates.
Page 5 · Modules can be wired in series to increase voltage or in parallel to increase current. To connect modules in series, connect the cables from the positive terminal of one module to the negative terminal of the next module. To connect in parallel, connect the cables from the positive terminal of one module to the positive terminal on the next module.
Page 6 · Grounding connections should be installed by a qualified electrician. · Connect module frames together using adequate grounding cables: Restar Solar recommends using 4-14mm² copper wire. Holes provided for this purpose are identified with a green label. All conductive connection junctions must be firmly fixed.
Page 7 · Standard modules can be mounted onto a support structure using one of several approved methods. One such method is described below. Use appropriate corrosion-proof fastening materials. All mounting hardware (bolts, spring washers, flat washers, nuts) should be stainless steel. ·...
Page 8 MAINTENANCE Do not make modifications to the PV components (diode, junction box, plug connectors). · Regular maintenance is required to keep modules clear of snow, bird droppings, seeds, pollen, leaves, branches, dirt spots, and dust. · Modules with sufficient tilt (at least 15°), generally do not require cleaning (rain will have a self-cleaning effect).
