1.nstallation Manual: MEMC Silvantis 60 cell PV Modules 10 of 15 5.4 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION WARNINGS Installation ahd maintenance should be performed by qualified personnel only, Use insulatedtools dur.ing installation, troubleshooting and maintenance of photovoltaic modules. Installers should adhere to all applicable,local, regional, and national codes and regulations when designing and constructing the photovoltaic system. Photovoltaic modules produce DC electrical energy from light. When illuminated, each module can have a DC potential of greater than 45V and should be handled with care. Disconnecting rnodules under illumination may causeelectrical arcing which may result in burns, fires, or other preblems. Modules connected in series should not be disconnected under illumination. Always use a wire management system that keeps wires and cables out of direct contact with edge surfaces which could cut or damage the insulation. Do notallow wires to rest on the ground or roof surface. The module junction box should not beopened or modified in any way in the field. Additional grounding holes may be added only with theexpress written consent.of MEMC.
