3. Do not wire multiple panels in
series. If you need to connect two
or more solar panels together, this
work must be done by a qualied
electrician unless they are connected
through a regulator.
4. This solar panel kit is not designed
for tie-in to a grid. Only a licensed
electrician and a licensed building
contractor can safely design and
implement a grid tie-in system. Any
grid tie-in system must meet all
applicable building and electrical
codes, and must meet standards
established by the area power
company. Improper grid tie-in can
result in electrocution, re, and other
serious personal injury and property
damage. An incorrectly installed grid
tie-in system can cause feedback
voltage, resulting in electrocution of
electrical utility workers.
5. Do not stand on or otherwise apply
pressure to panel.
6. Handle solar panel with care,
edges may be sharp.
7. Do not focus light on panel.
8. Install components with enough
space to allow proper cooling.
9. This product may occasionally
produce more current and/or
voltage than its rated output.
Increase output ratings by 25%
when determining component
required voltage and amperage
ratings. Refer to Section 690-8 of
the National Electrical Code for an
additional multiplying factor of 125
percent (80 percent derating) which
may apply.
10. Panel must be connected using
UL listed outdoor rated wire of the
correct thickness (gauge) for the
amperage rating and length (see
warning number 9 also). Follow the
guidelines in the chart below:

11. Install an appropriate charge
controller/regulator to regulate output
and prevent damage. Do not attach
panel to battery or power grid without
proper regulator, inverter, and/or
charge controller.
12. Install and use according to
applicable National Electrical Code
(NEC) standards.
13. This panel is not rated for use as
re-resistant roong. If installing on
a roof, install only over a re resistant
roof covering rated for the application.
14. Verify that installation surface has no
hidden utility lines before drilling or
driving screws.
15. Install only according to these
instructions. Improper installation
can create hazards.
