Safety Information

This section contains safety information that must be observed at all times when working on or with
the product.
To prevent personal injury and property damage and to ensure long-term operation of the product,
read this section carefully and observe all safety information at all times.
Danger to life due to high voltages of the PV array
When exposed to sunlight, the PV array generates dangerous DC voltage which is present in the
DC conductors. Touching the DC conductors can lead to lethal electric shocks.
• Disconnect the DC connectors on the input strings.
• Have the product mounted, installed and commissioned only by qualified persons with the
appropriate skills.
• Only touch the DC cables on their insulation.
• Do not touch the DC conductors.
Danger to life due to electric shock in case of a ground fault
If a ground fault occurs, parts of the system may still be live. Touching live components can lead
to lethal electric shocks.
• Ensure that no voltage is present and wait five minutes before touching any parts of the PV
system or of the Rapid Shutdown System.
