1.4 Guidelines for Safe Handling and Installation
IMPORTANT
THIS PRODUCT IS DESIGNED FOR INSTALLATION BY QUALIFIED
PERSONNEL ONLY.
ALL HANDLING AND INSTALLATIONS MUST BE PERFORMED IN
COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE CODES, RULES AND REGULATIONS.
In addition to the applicable rules and regulations, please follow all guidelines for safe
handling and/or installation of BenQ Solar modules. In addition to the guidelines below,
always observe industry best practices when handling and/or installing any BenQ Solar
module. Save this Installation Guide for future reference.
LIFTING AND HANDLING
Do not lift the module or carry module by junction box or PV cables.
Do not drill holes in the frame.
Avoid scratching the frame. Scratches to the frame will compromise protective coating
and can result in corrosion or weakened structure.
Do not scratch or damage the module backsheet. Scratches to the backsheet could
affect module performance.
Do not stand on, drop, scratch or allow objects to hit modules (especially module glass).
Do not install or handle the modules when wet or during periods of high wind.
Do not install the modules where there may be flammable gases or vapors, since sparks
may be produced.
Save these instructions for future reference.
ELECTRICAL HANDLING AND INSTALLATION
Modules interconnect points conduct direct current (DC) and are sources of voltage
when the module is under load and when it is exposed to light.
Direct current can arc across gaps and may cause injury or death if improper
connection or disconnection is made, or if contact is made with module leads that
are frayed or torn.
