Safety Instructions
• The installer must abide by all the safety instructions and precautions mentioned in this manual, and at the same time observe
the laws or regulations of authorized agencies and other local requirements. Failure to comply with the relevant safety and
installation specifications described in this manual, or failure to comply with the laws or regulations of authorized agencies and
other local requirements will result in the invalidation of the limited warranty of the purchased solar PV modules.
• Anker's solar PV modules have passed the tests of some of the world's leading certification institutes. Rest assured that it is
suitable for use if it meets the requirements and terms of this manual.
• Before installing the solar photovoltaic power generation system, please contact the relevant local authority to determine the
installation permit and inspection requirements that meet the local requirements.
• Be sure to consider the voltage changes at different temperatures when designing a photovoltaic system (when the temperature
drops, the module's variable output voltage will rise).
• As long as there is sunlight, photovoltaic modules can generate electricity normally. Shadow occlusion has a significant impact
on module power generation. Modules should not be covered or placed under shade (buildings, chimneys, and trees) nor should
they be partially shaded (overhead lines, dirt, or snow).
• Ensure the solar PV modules are stored in their original packaging before installation. The modules should be protected from
damage during transportation and storage. Do not open it until the modules arrive at the installation site. Unpack according to
the instructions, and be careful when transporting, opening, and storing. The packaged modules cannot be dropped directly.
• Ensure that the transportation and installation methods are correct. Otherwise, the modules may be damaged.
• Solar PV modules should not be stacked beyond the maximum number of layers listed on the packaging box. Before unpacking,
please place the packing box in a ventilated, dry, and weatherproof place.
• Do not stand, climb, walk, or jump on an unopened packaging or module.
• Objects that are heavy or sharp should not be placed on the front or back of the module. This will prevent damage to the module
and ensure its safety.
• It is recommended that you use disassembling tools and support to prevent the modules from tilting or falling off when
disassembling the carton. Modules should not be placed in unstable or unfixed environments.
• Whenever wires or junction boxes are pulled, modules cannot be carried. The modules should be held by two or more people
wearing non-slip gloves at the same time when being moved. Modules should not be stacked or placed on the head for
transportation.
• If you need to store modules temporarily, they should be stored in a dry and ventilated environment.
• Before installation, please make sure that all modules are in clean and dry conditions when they are in contact with electrical
appliances.
• Do not install any modules when it is raining, snowing, or windy.
• Do not install or use modules under artificial condensing light sources.
• The solar PV module's support structures should be constructed of durable, rust-proof, and UV-resistant materials. Make sure it
is tested, certified, and approved.
• For modules to be installed on columns, the column and module support structures must be wind and snow-resistant. Please
ensure that the wind and snow loads on the modules do not exceed the maximum load allowed by the design.
• Do not use solar photovoltaic modules with broken glass or damaged back sheets during installation. Repairing such modules is
not possible. Touching the aluminum frame or surface will result in an electric shock. You should not attempt to disassemble the
module or damage the nameplate or any other part of the module.
• Do not step on, place heavy objects, or scratch or damage the glass surface of the photovoltaic modules during installation.
• The glass of the module should not be painted or glued.
• When solar photovoltaic modules are being installed, opaque materials can be used to prevent electric shock or burning.
• Refrain from wearing metal rings, watches, earrings, nose rings, or other metal objects during the installation or maintenance of
the photovoltaic system. This will avoid damage to the modules and electric shock.
• In case of circuit overload, do not disconnect any electrical connections or unplug any connectors.
• Ensure that cables and connectors are not scratched or cut to prevent the insulation performance of the modules from
degrading.
• Make sure you use well-insulated tools in accordance with relevant electrical installation standards. Keep your children away
from the area of the installation site during the transportation and installation of modules.
• You must comply with local safety regulations (e.g., safety rules, and power plant operation regulations), including the installation
of wires and cables, connectors, inverters, charge controllers, storage batteries, and rechargeable batteries.
• As per the National Electrical Code, the maximum system voltage cannot exceed 1000V or 1500V. To determine the exact voltage,
09 EN
check the nameplate of the module you are using.
• The current and voltage generated by photovoltaic modules under certain conditions may be higher than those under standard
test conditions. If the installation conditions do not meet NEC requirements, the rated voltage of the module can be determined
by multiplying the Isc and Voc by a factor of 1.25, strengthening the current carrying capacity of the wire and the rated value of
the overcurrent protection device, as well as the capability of controlling the output end of the connected photovoltaic module.
• Anker's module design conforms to the international IEC61215 and IEC61730 standards and is rated class A for its application
level. It has passed IEC61730-1 and IEC61730-2 and is Class II safety-rated, making them suitable for systems requiring more
than 50V or 240W.
• Conforms to the Electrical Code - Part One - Electrical Equipment Safety Standard CSA C22.1-12-2012.
• All modules with exposed conductive parts are required to be grounded or otherwise regarded as violating UL 1703 under the
National Electrical Code of the United States and the installation manual.
• For installation methods and guidance on fire safety, consult the local competent authorities.
• To evaluate the fire rating of the system, the roof and mounting brackets must be covered with fireproof material and ventilated
while still complying with local electrical safety regulations.
• Different roof structures and installation methods will affect the fire safety performance of the building. If not properly installed,
it may lead to a fire. Module frames must be spaced 115mm (4.5in) apart from roof surfaces to ensure fire protection. Electrical
safety regulations require the use of appropriate module accessories, such as fuses, circuit breakers, and earthed connectors.
• The installation manual for the solar PV module outlines safety precautions. Ensure that the roof structure is stable and secure
before installing the modules. All roof-mounted modules must be sealed to prevent water leakage and ensure compliance with
fire safety standards. Dust accumulated on the surface will damage the performance of the module. The installation angle
should be kept above 10° so that rain can wash away dust. Smaller inclinations will require more frequent cleaning.
• Do not operate the operating panel of any equipment near flammable gas.
