Photovoltaic module mounting precautions

Photovoltaic module mounting precautions

Solar photovoltaic modules are engineered to transform light energy into direct-current electrical energy, specifically for outdoor applications. These modules can be installed on the ground, rooftops, vehicles, or boats.

Design Responsibility: The design of the support structures is the responsibility of the system designers and installers. Mounting Holes Utilization: It is recommended to use the pre-drilled mounting holes in the module frame, as detailed in the subsequent paragraph.

Handling Precautions: 
Do not attempt to disassemble the modules, and do not remove any attached nameplates or components from the modules.
Use only the pre-drilled holes in the frame for mounting, typically at the four symmetric points near the inner side.
In high wind or heavy snow conditions, secure the module using all eight mounting holes.
Do not lift the module by grasping the module’s junction box or electrical leads.
Do not stand, step on, or drop the module. Also, prevent any objects from falling on the module. 
To avoid glass breakage, do not place any heavy objects on the module.
Do not set the module down hard on any surface to avoid breakage.
Transport and install the module with caution to avoid damage.

Caution: Improper handling, transport, or installation can result in damage to the module, such as breakage. Ensure all procedures are followed carefully to avoid damage.
