Caution before Installation
Please read this instruction before installing PV module.
1)
The installation of PV module should be performed by qualified personnel only.
2)
When installing PV module, you should wear protective equipment. [electric shock or falling accident risk.]
3)
When installing PV module, do not step up onto the PV module or place the object on it.
4)
After installation, qualified person shall check whether it operates properly or not.
5)
Disassembling or replacing of the PV module part is not allowed without permission by manufacturer, and if you disassemble
or replace anything, please inform the PV module manufacturer.
6)
When disassembling or replacing the part with manufacture's permission, it should be performed by qualified person only,
and use the certified accessories.
7)
All installation work most be done to meet the local applicable standards, such as the recent National Electrical Code or
National Electrical Standards.
8)
When the PV module is damaged or stopped, anyone, even who has useful knowledge for the PV module, should not
approach to the PV module. Touch or approach may cause serious injury, in which case manufacturer is not responsible for
the damage therefrom.
9)
PV module's orientation shall be at equator direction, and be installed at the same angle as the latitude of the installation
location for the optimal generation performance. If it is installed at a different angle or direction, it may adversely affect an annual
generation capacity. In case of horizontal installation, S-Energy recommends regular cleaning to remove dust on the surface.
10)
PV module generates the voltage even without load connection. So, be careful for sparks especially when assembling /
disassembling PV module.
11)
PV module is intended to be installed on the ground or building.
If you need to install on the vehicle(car, train, etc.) or ship, please request special modules.
12)
Snow, water, dust, or other foreign substance on the surface may increase reflection of the light and eventually reduce the
PV module's output. [Regular cleaning of module surface can improve performance.]
13)
Standard specifications was measured at STC rating conditions, temperatures can get very effective in increasing power
generation is low.
14)
Before installation, modules should be stored under packing condition.
15)
Irrespective of module connection, contacting current carrying part may cause a burn or fatal electrical shock from sparks.
16)
The shading of the front surface of the module can cause the module degradation by fire or reduce its lifecycle.
17)
When working with the PV module wire, connect the wire with a hanger to avoid contact on the roof or ground.
18)
Potential Induced Degradation [PID] may be caused by ambient high temperature, humidity, and high system voltage. S-
Energy's PV module equipped with Enhanced PID module can endure these degradation, but a long term exposure may
also cause PID. To competely prevent PID, trans inverter and Nagative GND should be connected to the (-) GND with the
module frame.
19)
Do not use or install broken modules; Failure to comply may result in fire, electric shock, and injury.
5.
Caution when Installed
1)
Please make sure that installed module wire distribution is correct, and insulation and waterproof performance of
connect part is suitably installed.
2)
Check if there are any scratches on the frame and front surface of the glass.
[The scratch may lead oxidation and reduce the strength.]
3)
Regularly clean the module with water, and if the module is not cleaned with water, request to the manufacturer.
[Regular cleaning can significantly improve the output capacity.]
4)
The front surface of glass is specially treated, so do not apply any abrasive cleaning product or chemicals.
5)
Periodic inspection should be performed only by qualified personnel with protective equipment.
6)
To avoid shade by the vegetation environment, regular weeding is needed.
