Modules produce voltage even when not connected to an electrical circuit or load. Please use insulated tools and rubber gloves when working with Modules in sunlight.
Modules have no on/off switch. Modules can be rendered inoperative only by removing them from sunlight, or by fully covering their front surface with cloth, cardboard, or other completely opaque material, or by working with Modules face down on a smooth, flat surface.
In order to avoid arcs and electrical shock, please do not disconnect electrical connections under load. Faulty connections can also result in arcs and electrical shock. So please keep connectors dry and clean, and ensure that they are in proper working condition. Never insert metal objects into the connector, or modify them in any way in order to secure an electrical connection.
Modules can produce higher output than the rated specifications. Industry standard ratings are made at Standard Test Conditions of 1000 W/㎡ Irradiance, 25°C Cell Temperature and 1.5 Air Mass.
Reflection from snow or water can increase sunlight and therefore boost current and power. In addition, colder temperatures can substantially increase voltage and power.
If the glass or other material is damaged, please wear personal protection equipment and separated the nodule
from the circuit.
Do not touch the Modules if it’s wet, unless during the cleaning procedure. At the same time the cleaning
operation should according to the manual.
Do not touch the wet connector without protecting yourself with personal protection equipment or rubber gloves.
Do not use mirrors or other magnifiers to concentrate sunlight onto the Modules.
3.3 Operating Safety

At the same time please protect the package against exposure to damage. Secure pallets from falling over.
Do not exceed the maximum height of pallets to be stacked, as indicated on the pallet packaging.
Store pallets in a cool and dry location until the Modules are ready to be unpackaged.
Please unpack the package of JA Solar Modules according to “JA Solar Modules Un-Pack Instruction”.
Do not lift the Modules by grasping the Modules’ junction box or electrical leads in any condition.
Do not stand or step on the Modules.
Do not drop the Modules on another Module.
Do not place any heavy objects on the Modules to avoid glass breakage.
Be cautious when setting the Modules down on to a surface, especially on the corner of the Modules.
Inappropriate transport and installation may break the Modules.
Do not attempt to disassemble the Modules, and do not remove any attached nameplates or components from the Modules.
Do not apply paint or adhesive to the Modules top surface.
To avoid damage to the backsheet, do not scratch or hit the backsheet.
Do not drill holes in the frame. This may compromise the frame strength and cause corrosion of the frame.
Do not scratch the anodized coating of the frame (except for grounding connection). It may cause corrosion of the frame or compromise the frame strength.
Do not attempt to repair the Modules with damaged glass or backsheet.

3.4 Fire Safety
Consult your local authority for guidelines and requirements for building or structural fire safety.
Roof constructions and installations may affect the fire safety of building. Improper installation may create hazards in the event of a fire.
Use appropriate components such as fuses, circuit breaker and grounding connector as requires by local authority.
Do not use Modules where flammable gasses may be generated.
4. Installation Condition
4.1 Installation position and working environment
JA Solar Modules are intended for use in terrestrial applications only—no outer space marine or vehicle use.
Modules should not be installed nor operated in areas where, salt, hail, snow, sand, dust, air pollution, chemically active vapors, acid rain, soot, etc., are excessive.
Please adopt appropriate measures to ensure the performance and safety of the Modules when they are installed or operated in the areas where produces heavy snow, extremely cold, strong wind ,or near the island or desert where is prone to produce salt fog, or near water.
Modules should be mounted on appropriate mounting structures positioned on suitable buildings, the ground, or other structures suitable for Modules (e.g. carports, building facades or PV trackers). Modules should not be mounted on moving vehicles of any kind.
Modules should not be installed in locations where they could be submerged in water.
Modules should be installed in locations where the altitude is less than 2000m
The PV modules of JA Solar are suitable for operation in outdoor non-weather protected locations, exposed to direct and indirect solar radiation, in an environmental temperature range of at least –40 °C to +40 °C and up to 100 % relative humidity as well as rain. The temperature limits are defined as the monthly average high and low of the installation site. Ensure Modules are not subject to wind or snow loads exceeding the maximum permissible loads.
The Modules should be installed in a location where there’s no shading throughout the year. Ensure there’s no obstacle to block light near the installation site.
Lightning protection is recommended for PV systems that are to be installed in locations with high probability of lightning strikes.
Do not use Modules near equipment or in locations where flammable gasses may be generated or collected.
JA Solar Modules should not be sited in locations where aggressive substances such as salt or salt-water, or any other type of corrosive agent, could affect the safety and/or performance of the Modules.
JA Solar Modules have passed the IEC 61701 salt-mist, but galvanic corrosion can occur between the aluminum frame of the Modules and mounting or grounding hardware if such hardware is comprised of dissimilar metals. JA

4.1 Tilt Angle Selection
The tilt angle of the Modules is measured between the surface of the Modules and a horizontal ground surface. The Modules generates maximum power output when it faces the sun directly. Artificially concentrated sunlight shall not be directed on the module or panel.
In the northern hemisphere, Modules should typically face south, and in the southern hemisphere, Modules should typically face north.
For detailed information on the best installation angle, please refer to standard solar photovoltaic installation guides or consult a reputable solar installer or systems integrator.
Because the Modules passed UL 790 class C fire tests, the slope of tested module is 5 in/ft (416 mm/m), which is the most severe condition. And there is no limited for title angel .
5. Mechanical Installation
5.1 Conventional requirements
Ensure the installation method and supporting system of Modules is strong enough to make the nodules can withstand all the load conditions. The Installer should provide this guarantee. The installation supporting system should be tested by the third-party organization with the analysis ability of Static Mechanical, according to the local national or international standards.
The fire rating of this module is valid only when mounted in the manner specified in the mechanical mounting instructions. The module is considered to be in compliance with IEC61730-2:2016 only when the module is mounted in the manner specified by the mounting instructions .Based on standards IEC61730-2:2016 standard, when for the rooftop mounting, the rooftop covering material should have class C fire resistance at least.
The Modules mounting structure should be made of durable, corrosion-resistant and UV-resistant material. Modules should be securely attached to the mounting structure.
In regions with heavy snowfall in winter, select the height of the mounting system. So that the lowest edge of the Modules is not covered by snow for any length of time. In addition, ensure that the lowest portion of the Modules is placed high enough so that it is not shaded by plants or trees or damaged by flying sand.
When the Modules are supported parallel to the surface of the building wall or roof, a minimum stand-off of 102 mm (4 inches) between the modules and the surface of the wall or the roof is required to allow air to circulate behind the Modules for heat dissipation. The position of junction box should be on the top side, and away from the ground.
Do not attempt to drill holes in the glass surface and the Modules frames of the Modules as this will void the warranty.
Before installing Modules on a roof, ensure the roof coverings should have fire resistant Class C. In addition, any roof penetration required to mount the Modules should be properly sealed to prevent leaks.
Dust building up on the surface of the Modules can impair with Modules performance. JA solar recommends installing the Modules with a tilt angle of at least 10 degrees, making it easier for dust to be washed off by rain.
Observe the linear thermal expansion of the Modules frames (the recommended minimum distance between two
