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.
< GENERAL WARNING >
1.
PV modules are heavy. Handle with care.
2.
Before you attempt to install, wire, operate and maintain the
PV module, please make sure that you completely
understand the information described in this installation
manual.
3.
Contact with electrically active parts of a PV module such as
terminals can result in burns, sparks and lethal shock whether
the PV modules is connected or not.
4.
PV modules produce electricity when the sufficient sunlight or
other sources illuminate the module surface. When the
modules are connected in series, voltage is cumulative. When
the modules are connected in parallel, current is cumulative.
As a result, a large-scale PV system can produce high voltage
and current which could present an increased hazard and
may cause serious injury or death.
5.
Do not connect the PV modules directly to the loads such as
motor since the variation of the output power depending on
the solar irradiation causes damage for the connected motor.
1: In the case of a brushless motor, the lock function becomes
active and the hall IC is most likely to be damaged.
2: In the case of a brush type motor, the coil is most likely to
be damaged.
6.
In case of snow build-up, snow would slide easier on the
smooth surface of the module than other parts of the roof.
Snow may suddenly slide, fall off the roof and hit nearby
objects/areas. Take preventive measures (e.g. snow stopper)
when there is possible risk such case would cause an injury
or a damage.
< GENERAL SAFETY >
1.
Consult local codes and other applicable laws concerning
required permits on regulations concerning installation and
inspection requirements.
2.
Before installing a PV module, contact appropriate authorities
to determine permit, installation and inspection requirements
that should be followed.
3.
Install PV modules and ground frames in accordance with
applicable rules and regulations.
4.
PV modules should be installed and maintained by qualified
personnel. Only installer/servicer personnel should have
access to the PV module installation site.
5.
No matter where the PV modules are installed, either roof
mounted construction or any other type of structures above
the ground, appropriate safety practices should be followed
and required safety equipment should be used in order to
avoid possible safety hazards. Note that the installation of
some PV modules on roofs may require the addition of
fireproofing, depending on local building/fire codes.
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
6.
In the case that the PV modules are non-integral type, the
module is to be mounted over a fire resistant roof.
7.
Please use PV modules with same cell size within series.
8.
Follow all safety precautions of other components used in the
system.
9.
In order to avoid a risk of injury or electrical shock, do not allow
anyone to approach the PV module if the person has little
knowledge on PV module or on the measures that should be
taken when PV modules are damaged.
10. Do not shade portions of the PV module surface from the
sunlight for a long time. The shaded cell may become hot (hot
spot phenomenon) which results in solder joints peeling off.
Shading causes drop in generated power and/or operation
failure of the PV modules.
11. Do not clean the glass surface with chemicals. Do not let water
stay on the glass surface of PV modules for a long time. This
creates a risk of white efflorescence (glass disease) which
may result in the deterioration of energy generation.
12. Do not install the PV module horizontally. It may cause dirt or
white efflorescence (glass disease) due to water.
13. Do not cover the water drain gap of the frame. There is a risk
of frost damage when the frame is filled with water cumulation.
14. When sliding snow load has to be considered, an appropriate
measure has to be taken so that PV module frames on lower
edge of PV modules will not be damaged.
15. Do not expose PV module to sunlight concentrated with
mirrors, lenses or similar means.
16. Turn off inverters and circuit breakers immediately, should a
problem occur.
17. In case the glass surface of a PV module is broken, wear
goggles and tape the glass to keep the broken pieces in place.
18. A defective PV module may generate power even if it is
removed from the system. It may be dangerous to handle the
PV module while exposed to sunlight. Place a defective PV
module in a carton so PV cells are completely shaded.
19. In case of series connection, the maximum open circuit voltage
must not be greater than the specified maximum system
voltage. The voltage is proportional to the number of series.
In case of parallel connection, please be sure to take proper
measure (e.g. fuse for protection of module and cable from
over current, and/or blocking diode for prevention of
unbalanced strings voltage) to block the reverse current flow.
The current may easily flow in a reverse direction.
20. Keep modules away from children.
< HANDLING SAFETY >
1.
Do not cause an excessive load on the surface of PV module
or twist the frame. The glass surface can easily break.
2.
Do not stand or step on the PV module. The surface glass of
PV module is slippery.
3.
Do not hit or put excessive load on the glass or back sheet.
The PV cell is very thin and can be easily broken.
4.
Do not scratch or hit at the back sheet. The back sheet is
vulnerable.
5.
Do not hit on the junction box or do not pull the cables. The
junction box can crack and break.
6.
Never touch junction box or the end of output cables with bare
hands when the PV module is irradiated. Cover the surface
of PV module with cloth or other suitable sufficiently opaque
material to isolate the PV module from incident light and
handle the wires with rubber-gloved hands to avoid electric
shock.
7.
Do not scratch the output cable or bend it with force. The
insulation of output cable can break and may result in electricity
leakage or shock.
8.
Do not pull the output cable excessively. The output cable may
unplug and cause electricity leakage or shock.
9.
Do not drill holes in the frame. It may compromise the frame
strength and cause corrosion of the frame.
10. Do not scratch the insulation coating of the frame (except for
grounding connection). It may cause corrosion of the frame
or compromise the framework strength.
11. Do not loosen or remove the screws of the PV module. It may
compromise the joint strength of PV module and cause
corrosion.
12. Do not touch the PV module with bare hands. The frame of
PV module has sharp edges and may cause injury.
13. Do not drop PV module or allow objects to fall down on the
PV module.
14. Do not try artificially to concentrate sunlight on the PV module.
15. Do not grab the PV module at only one side. The frame may
bend. Grab the PV module at two sides facing each other.
< INSTALLATION SAFETY >
1.
Always wear protective head gear, insulating gloves and safety
shoes (with rubber soles).
2.
Keep the PV module packed in the carton until installation.

7.
Do not drop tools or hard objects on PV modules
8.
When installing PV modules far above ground, do not drop
any object (e.g., PV module or tools).
9.
Make sure flammable gases are not generated near the
installation site.
10. Completely cover the PV module surface with an opaque
material during PV module installation and wiring.
11. Plug in the connector tight and ensure the wiring work.
12. Due to the risk of electrical shock, do not perform any work if
the terminals of PV module are wet.
13. Do not touch the junction box and the end of output cables,
the cable ends (connectors), with bare hands during
installation or under sunlight, regardless of whether the PV
module is connected to or disconnected from the system.
14. Do not unplug the connector if the system circuit is connected
to a load.
15. Do not stomp on the glass at work. There is a risk of injury or
electric shock if glass is broken.
16. Do not work alone (always work as a team of 2 or more
people).
17. Wear a safety belt if working far above the ground.
18. Do not wear metallic jewelry which can cause electric shock
during installation.
19. Do not damage the back sheet of PV modules when fastening
the PV modules to a support by bolts.
20. Do not damage the surrounding PV modules or mounting
structure when replacing a PV module.
21. Bind cables by the insulation locks. Drooping down of cables
from the junction box could possibly cause various problems
such as animal biting, electricity leakage in puddle.
22. Take proper measures for preventing the laminate (consisted
of resin, cells, glass, back sheet, etc.) from dropping out of the
frame in case the glass is broken.
23. Cables shall be located so that they will not be exposed to
direct sunlight after installation to prevent degradation of
cables.
24. If batteries are used with modules, follow safety precautions
of the battery manufacturer.
25. In case of extreme snow build-up, the weight of the snow may
cause the module's frame to deform. Take appropriate
preventive measures to minimize any possible resulting
damage.
4. SITE SELECTION
In most applications, the PV modules should be installed in a location
where there is no shading throughout the year. In the Northern
Hemisphere, the PV modules should typically face south, and in the
Southern Hemisphere, the PV modules should typically face north.
Please make sure that there are no obstructions in the surroundings
of the site of installation. Take proper steps in order to maintain
reliability and safety, in case the PV modules are used in areas such
as: Heavy snow areas / Extremely cold areas / Strong wind areas
/ Installations over, or near, water / Areas where installations are
prone to salt water damage(*) / Small islands or desert areas.
(*) If you are planning to use the PV modules where the salt water
damage may be possible, please consult with SHARP local agent
first to determine an appropriate installation method, or to determine
whether the installation is possible.
5. TILT ANGLE
The tilt angle of the PV module is the measured between the PV
module and a horizontal ground surface. The PV module generates
the maximum output power when it faces the sun directly.
5 degrees or more is recommended for the tilt angle of the PV module
for the maintenance ( See 11. Maintenance).
For the standalone systems with a battery where the PV modules
are attached to a permanent structure, the tilt angle of the PV modules
should be determined to optimize the performance when the sunlight
is the scarcest. In general, if the electric power generation is adequate
when the sunlight is the scarcest, then the angle chosen should be
adequate during the rest of the year. For grid-connected installations
where the PV modules are attached to a permanent structure, it is
recommended to tilt the PV module at the angle equal to the latitude
of the installation site so that the power generation from the PV
module will be optimum throughout the year.
6. WIRING
To ensure proper system operation and to maintain your guaranty,
observe the correct cable connection polarity (Figures 1 & 2) when
connecting the modules to a battery or to other modules. If not
connected correctly, the bypass diode could be destroyed.

PV modules can be wired in series to increase voltage. Connect wires
from the positive terminal of one module to the negative terminal of
the next module. Figure 1 shows modules connected in series.
Connect PV modules in parallel to increase current. Connect wires
from the positive terminal of one module to the positive terminal on
the next module. Figure 2 shows modules connected in parallel.
7. INSTALLATION
Refer to installation manual of PV module.
8. ELECTRICAL RATINGS
Refer to installation manual of PV module.
9. GROUNDING
The frame grounding must consider the local requirement and
regulation at the site of installation. When grounding is required,
please refer to below example connection (Figure 3).
Please be careful in arranging the system ground so that the
removal of one module from the circuit will not interrupt the grounding
of any other modules.
The modules should be grounded to the same electrical point as
described below.
SIDE FRAME

SCREW TERMINAL
Figure 3. Example of acceptable ground connection
Each PV module has a hole on the side frame for either a bolt, nut
and washer grounding the module to the frame, a ground lug
fastened by bolt or screw, or appropriate screw (hardware not
provided). Near the hole for ground, either " " or " G " is indicated
as ground symbol. An example of acceptable ground connection
using a bolt, nut and washer retaining a ground lug is shown in figure
3. In a connection of this type, the hardware (such as a toothed
locked washer/star washer) must score the frame surface to make
positive electrical contact with the frame. The ground wire must be
considered within the local requirement and regulation at the site of
installation.
10. MOUNTING
Please make sure that all the information described in the installation
manual is still valid and proper for your installation. The mounting
method has been verified by SHARP and NOT CERTIFIED by a
third party organization.
The approved way to mount Sharp PV modules to a support
structure is using the bolt holes provided as described in the
Specifications. Although Sharp does not specify or warrant frame
clips or clamps, using frame clips (not provided) or clamps (not
provided) is also possible when they are designed for PV modules
and with minimum dimensions on the sides of the module in
accordance with the instructions and drawings provided. If using
frame clips or clamps, the modules should be fixed rigidly and there
shall be no damage to the modules by deforming mounting structure
against design load. The Sharp module guaranty may be void if
customer-selected frame clips which are improper or inadequate
with respect to the module properties (including strength or material)
or installation. Note that if metal clips are used, there must be a path
to ground from the clips, (for instance, using star washers in the clip
hardware set).
Please review the descriptions and drawings carefully; not mounting
the modules according to one of these methods may void your
guaranty. These mounting methods are designed to allow module
loading of 2400Pa. Support structures that PV modules are
mounted on should be rigid. Sharp PV modules are designed to
secure their electric performance under the condition that they are
mounted on rigid support structures. Deformation of support
structure may damage PV module with its electric performance.
When mounting the module on structure, ensure that no corner has
a displacement of more than 2mm per every 1000mm of the
diagonal.
11. MAINTENANCE
The modules are designed for long life and require very little
maintenance. If the angle of the PV module is 5 degrees or more,
normal rainfall is sufficient to keep the module glass surface clean
under most weather conditions. If dirt build-up becomes excessive,
clean the glass surface only with a soft cloth using water. If cleaning
the back of the module is required, take utmost care not to damage
+
the back side materials. In order to ensure the operation of the
system, please check the connection of wiring and the state of the
jacket of wires every now and then.
For PV modules with anti-reflective coating glass (ND-195R1S to
ND-175R1S), do not touch the glass since finger prints or stains will
easily mark the glass. If dirt build-up becomes excessive, clean the
+
glass surface with water only.
