GENERAL INFORMATION
THE NSTALLAT ON OF MODULES REQU RES A GREAT DEGREE OF SK LL AND SHOULD ONLY BE PERFORMED BY QUAL F ED L CENSED PROFESS ONALS,
NCLUD NG, W THOUT L M TAT ON, L CENSED CONTRACTORS AND L CENSED ELECTR C ANS. THE NSTALLER ASSUMES THE R SK OF ALL NJURY THAT
MGHT OCCUR DUR NG NSTALLAT ON, NCLUD NG, W THOUT L M TAT ON, THE R SK OF ELECTR C SHOCK. NU-LOK ROOF NG SYSTEMS AND ATLANT S
ENERGY SYSTEMS ELECTR C MODULES DO NOT REQU RE THE USE OF SPEC AL CABLE ASSEMBL ES. ALL MODULES COME W TH A PERMANENTLY
ATTACHED JUNCT ON BOX THAT W LL ACCEPT A VAR ETY OF W R NG APPL CAT ONS OR W TH A SPEC AL CABLE ASSEMBLY FOR EASE OF NSTALLAT ON.
T S RECOMMENDED TO UT L ZE A QUAL F ED NSTALLER OR RESELLER FOR SERV CE.
GENERAL SAFETY
Follow All Permit, Installation, and Inspe tion Requirement
• Before installing a module, contact appropriate authorities to deter-
mine permit, installation, and inspection requirements that should be
followed. This should be done not only for installations in conjunc-
tion with buildings, but also for marine and motor vehicle applica-
tions for which additional requirements may apply.
• Electrically ground metal parts for all systems of any voltage.
• f not otherwise specified, it is recommended that the latest National
and nternational Electrical Code requirements be followed.
• The word "module" as used in this Guide refers to one or more solar
electric modules.
• Avoid electrical hazards when installing, wiring, operating and main-
taining the module.
• A module generates DC electricity when exposed to sunlight or
other light sources.
• Do not touch terminals while module is exposed to light or during in-
stallation. Provide suitable guards to prevent contact with 30VDC or
greater. As an added precaution, use properly insulated tools only.
• When installing or working with module or wiring, cover module face
completely with opaque material to halt production of electricity.
• t is recommended that the module remains packed in the box until
time of installation.
• Work only under dry conditions, with a dry module and tools.
• Do not drop module or allow objects to fall on module.
• Do not stand or step on module.
• Since sparks may be produced, do not install module where flam-
mable gases or vapors are present.
• Special construction may be required to help provide proper installa-
tion. When installing modules on any structure above ground, avoid
any possible falling safety hazards by following appropriate safety
practice(s) and using required safety equipment. Both roof construc-
tion and module installation design have an effect on the fire resist-
ance of the building. mproper installation may contribute to hazards
in the event of fire. Additional devices such as ground fault, fuses,
and disconnects may be required.
• Do not use modules of different configurations in the same system.
• Follow all safety precautions of other used components.
• Never leave a module unsupported or unsecured. f a module
should fall, the glass can break. A module with broken glass cannot
be repaired and must not be used.
• Keep back surface free from foreign objects.
• t must be assured that other system components do not generate
any hazard of any mechanical or electrical nature to the module.
• Do not artificially concentrate sunlight on the module.
• Avoid sharp edges.
• Module installation and operation should be performed by qualified
personnel only. Children should not be allowed near the solar elec-
tric installation.
• f not otherwise specified, it is recommended that requirements of
the latest local, national or regional electrical codes are followed.
• Use module for its intended function only. Follow all module manu-
facturers’ instructions. Do not disassemble the module, or remove
any part or label installed by the manufacturer. Do not treat the back
of the module with paint or adhesives.
