Legal Information About Self-Installing R410A Air Conditioners
A homeowner with a vacuum pump, proper training, and equipment can install this unit. Unless you are
experienced with installing air conditioners we recommend you hire a professional installer. The person who
installs the system must do all work in compliance with local building and electrical codes.
Are there any restrictions on the purchase of R410A refrigerants?
R410a is not an ozone-depleting substance. At this time the purchase of R410a refrigerant is not restricted in the
US. There is no technician certification requirement for those that purchase HFC refrigerants, such as R-410a or R-
134a. If you are not licensed, some local HVAC supply companies may refuse to sell you R410a based on a
misunderstanding of the law, or because they wish to discourage homeowners from working on their own
systems.
Are there any restrictions on the use of R410A refrigerants?
Yes, it is illegal to knowingly vent or release these refrigerants. The venting prohibition applies to R410a, and all
other HFC refrigerants, just as it does for ozone-depleting refrigerants like R-22.
Is EPA technician certification required to service R410A systems?
No, at this time EPA technician certification is not required in order to service R-410a systems.

When disconnecting wires from a photovoltaic module that is exposed to sunlight,
an electric arc may result. Such arcs may cause burns, combustion and may otherwise
create
problems. Therefore, be extremely careful!
Photovoltaic solar modules convert light energy to direct-current electrical energy. They
are
designed for outdoor use. Modules may be ground mounted, mounted on rooftops, vehicles, or
boats. Proper design of support structures is the responsibility of the system designer
and
installer. Proper use of mounting holes is suggested in a following paragraph.
Do not attempt to disassemble the module, and do not remove any attached nameplates or components.
Do not apply paint or adhesive to module top surface.
Do not use mirrors or other magnifiers to artificially concentrate sunlight on the
module.
When installing the system, abide with all local, regional and national statutory regulations. Obtain
a building permit where necessary. Abide with any local and national regulations
when mounting
on vehicles or
boats.
Safetyprecautionforinstallingasolarphotovoltaicsystem

Solar modules produce electrical energy when light strikes on their front surface. The DC voltage may
exceed 30V. If modules are connected in series, the total voltage is equal to the sum of the individual
module voltages. If modules are connected in parallel, the total current is equal to the sum of individual
module currents.
Fig.29Do NOT Connect in Series.
Parallel Only.
Keep children well away from the system while transporting and installing mechanical and electrical
components.
Fig.30
Completely cover the module with an opaque material during installation to keep electricity from being
generated. Do not touch the components or the end of live wires. However, if
appropriate protections
have been taken during the operation according to the local safety regulations,
the above requirement is
unnecessary.
