PURPOSE OF THIS GUIDE
This guide contains important information regarding the installation, safe handling and maintenance of
photovoltaic modules made by Hanwha SolarOne. The word “module” as used in this guide refers to one or more
PV modules.
All instructions should be read and understood prior to installing the modules. The installer should conform to all
the safety precautions in this guide when installing the modules. Local standards and regulations should also be
followed during installation. Before installing a photovoltaic system, the installer must be familiar with the
mechanical and electrical requirements for such a PV system. Keep this guide in a safe place for future reference.

DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY
The installation techniques, handling and use of the product are beyond company control. Therefore, Hanwha
SolarOne assumes no responsibility for loss, damage or expense resulting from improper installation, handling or
misuse.
Ensure that the module is used only in applications for which it is suitable (see “Installing Module”). All work on a
PV system (installation, setup, maintenance) must be carried out only by appropriately qualified and authorized
engineers. The appropriate DIN standards, construction rules and safety instructions must be followed during
installation.
UL LISTING INFORMATION
1. Rated electrical characteristics are within 10% of measured values at Standard Test Conditions of:
1000W/m2, 25℃ cell temperature and solar spectral irradiance per ASTM E892 or irradiance of AM 1.5
spectrum.
2. The standoff height should be at least 7.9 in. If other mounting means are employed, this may affect the UL
Listing.
3. The modules have been evaluated by UL for a maximum positive or negative design loading of 30 lbs/ft2.
4. Wiring methods should be in accordance with the NEC.
5. For installations in Canada, the installation shall also be in accordance with CSA C22.1, safety Standards for
Electrical Installations, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1.
6. The use of the following hardware is required in order to provide a reliable grounding connection to the
module frame: a combination of the following stainless steel hardware: Serrated washer, Spring washer, flat
washer, a size M4 nut, and bolt M4x30mm -- (see illustration grounding for details).
WARNING!
PV modules generate electricity as soon as they are exposed to sunlight. One module generates a safe, extra low
voltage level, but multiple modules connected in series (summing the voltage) or in parallel (summing the current)
represent a danger. The following points must be noted when handling the solar modules to avoid the risk of fire,
sparking and fatal electric shock.
Do not insert any electrically conducting materials into the plugs or sockets.

UNPACKING AND STORING MODULE：
Utmost attention is required when handling module. The following guidelines should be followed with caution
while unpacking, transporting and storing the modules:
SYSTEM DESIGN, MOUNTING AND INSTALLATION：
System Design
Before installing your solar system, contact local authorities to determine the necessary permit, installation and
inspection requirements that must be followed.
System should be installed by qualified personnel only. The system involves electricity, and can be dangerous if
the personnel are not familiar with the appropriate safety procedures.
PV modules should be mounted in a location where they will receive maximum sunlight throughout the year.
Specially, in the Northern Hemisphere, the modules should face South. And in the Southern Hemisphere, the
modules should face North.
Do not fit solar modules and wiring with wet plugs and sockets.
To avoid the generation of an electric arc, ensure the connectors are clean and have
not been contaminated, and that the electrical connection and mechanical joint are
good.
Make sure that the connection is made when the circuit is cut off. Do not disconnect
under load.
Make sure to use proper safety equipments (insulated tools, insulated gloves, etc.)
when wiring.
Do not strike or physically damage the module.
Carry modules with both hands. Do not use the connection socket as a handle;
Avoid cutting and damaging the frame during handling and installation.
Do not stand on the module.
Do not twist the module.
Do not mark on the rear of the module using sharp objects.
