requirements, please confirm with Jinko and install it;

During the installation, disassembly, maintenance and any other related processes of the product, it
is recommended that the force applied between the cable and the connector, the cable and the
junction box be no more than 60N.

2.2 Installation Condition

2.2.1 Climate Condition

Please install the modules in the following conditions:
a) Operating temperature: within –40° C(-40℉) to 85° C (185℉)
b) Humidity: < 85RH%
﹡Note: The mechanical load bearing (include wind and snow loads) of the module is based on the
approved mounting methods. The professional system installer must be responsible for mechanical load
calculation according to the system design.

2.2.2 Site Selection

In most applications, Jinko solar PV modules should be installed in a location where they will receive
maximum sunlight throughout the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, the module should typically face
south, and in the Southern Hemisphere, the modules should typically face north. Modules facing 30
degrees away from true South (or North) will lose approximately10 to 15 percent of their power output. If
the module faces 60 degrees away from true South (or North), the power loss will be 20 to 30 percent.
When choosing a site, avoid trees, buildings or obstructions, which could cast shadows on the solar
photovoltaic modules especially during the winter months when the arc of the sun is lowest over the
horizon. Shading causes loss of output, even though the factory fitted bypass diodes of the PV module
will minimize any such loss.
Do not install the PV module near open flame or flammable materials.
When solar modules are used to charge batteries, the battery must be installed in a manner, which will
protect the performance of the system and the safety of its users. Follow the battery manufacturer's
guidelines concerning installation, operation and maintenance recommendations. In general, the battery
(or battery bank) should be away from the main flow of people and animal traffic. Select a battery site
that is protected from sunlight, rain, snow, debris, and is well ventilated. Most batteries generate hydrogen
gas when charging, which can be explosive. Do not light matches or create sparks near the battery bank.
When a battery is installed outdoors, it should be placed in an insulated and ventilated battery case
specifically designed for the purpose.
Do not install the PV module in a location where it would be immersed in water or continually exposed to
water from a sprinkler or fountain etc.
The PV module can be installed at a distance of 50 m to 500m from the seashore. However, when
