Wiring
WARNING! The module is provided from the factory with pre-connected cables. Under no circumstances should the junction box be opened.
ATTENTION! Check that the module wiring is correct before commissioning. All DC cables should be as short as possible.
ATTENTION! If measured open circuit volage differs from the specifications, there is a wiring fault.
WARNING! Make sure all connections are secure and tight and made in dry conditions.
Modules should be strung in a way that the resulting voltages and currents do not violate the max. voltage and max. current of the inverter and module which are stated on the product datasheets.
When Autarco modules are supplied as part of an integrally designed, complete Autarco solar PV system, the supplied wiring diagram should be followed.
Use Autarco supplied solar cable and connectors only. Ensure that they are in perfect electrical and mechanical condition. Use only single wire DC cables.
5.1
Cable protection
We recommend securing the cables to the mounting system using UV-resistant cable ties. Protect exposed cables from damage using suitable precautions (e.g. laying them in plastic pipes). Avoid direct exposure to sunlight.
6.
Maintenance
Given a sufficient tilt (at least 15°), it is generally not necessary to clean the modules (rainfall will have a self- cleaning effect). In case of seriously dirty modules, we recommend cleaning them using plenty of water (from a hose) without any cleaning agents and using a gentle cleaning implement (a sponge). Dirt must never be scraped or rubbed away when dry, as this may cause micro-scratches.
7.
Disclaimer of liability
Since compliance with this guide and the conditions and methods of installation, operation, use and maintenance of the modules are not checked or monitored by Autarco, Autarco accepts no liability for damage arising through improper use or incorrect installation, operation, use or maintenance.
