01. GENERAL INFORMATION The installation manual must be read carefully and understood before starting to mount, wire or operate BAUER solar modules. The manual contains important safety information that must also be passed on to end users. The installation and handling of photovoltaic modules requires in-depth expertise and therefore all work on a PV system may only be carried out by appropriately qualified and authorized specialists.

For work on the roof, the corresponding protective measures of the accident prevention regulations, in short APR (UVV), must be observed (safety harness, protective scaffolding, etc.). If necessary, barriers must be erected to protect against falling parts. The statics of the roof and building must also be checked before installation begins.
General Terms and Conditions of the Company and the warranty conditions of Bauer Solar Engineering GmbH or Bauer Solar GmbH valid on the date of the order confirmation shall apply. Furthermore, warranty and liability claims are excluded if they are due to one or more of the following...
Inverter Both transformerless inverters and inverters with transformers can be used. It is essential to observe the planning notes in the installation and operating instructions of the inverter manufacturer. Circuit Breaker In Germany, the DC string lines may only be connected to the inverters via permitted isolators. If the planned inverters do not have these isolators, string lines must be connected via external, permissible isolators.
07. INSTALLATION AND MOUNTING SYSTEMS BAUER modules are suitable for rooftop, façade and ground-mounted systems. For mounting on roofs, please use only rustproof materials such as aluminum and stainless steel. Preferably, you should only use mounting frames from manufacturers who can provide you with proof of the static load of their frames and who provide you with sufficient mounting instructions.

The maximum rail length in each case can be found in the installation instructions of the substructure manufacturer.
08. GROUNDING, LIGHTNING AND FIRE PROTECTION Proper grounding of the PV-system is subject to the responsibility of the installer. Use ground fault circuit interrupters and fuses as required by local authorities. The installation of the photovoltaic system does not necessarily require the installation of a building lightning protection system.
09. WIRING Plan the entire cabling very carefully. Too small cross-sections lead to cable losses, which directly affect the yield of the plant AND can lead to overheating (fire hazard!). Therefore, please use only cables with a cross- section of at least 4mm .
10. MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING The photovoltaic system is generally maintenance-free. Nevertheless, we recommend a regular inspection of the system (for function, visual inspection of the wiring and signs of damage and glass breakage) in order to be able to promptly detect and rectify any operating faults. Normally, the system is kept clean by rainwater run-off.
