1.0 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing ASP Photovoltaic (PV) modules.
The modules you have chosen are highly efficient, use unique proprietary technology, are extremely rugged and
are designed to provide the longest life span of any photovoltaic module in the industry.
Artificially concentrated sunlight shall not be directed on the module or panel.
This manual provides safety and installation instructions for ASP Photovoltaic modules.
1.1 Disclaimer of Liability
The installation techniques, handling and use of this product are beyond company control. Therefore, ASP
does not assume responsibility for loss, damage or expense resulting from improper installation, handling or
use.
1.2 Limited Warranty
Module Limited warranties are described in the ASP warranty certificates.
ASP module warranty describes as below:
Free from defect in materials and workmanship for 5 years
90% of minimum warranty power output for 10 years
80% of minimum warranty power output for 25 years
2.0 Safety Precautions
Before installing this module, read all safety instructions in this manual.
Under normal conditions, a photovoltaic module is likely to experience conditions that produce more current
and/or voltage than reported at standard test conditions. Accordingly, the values of Isc and Voc marked on this
module should be multiplied by a factor of 1.25 when determining component voltage ratings, conductor
ampacities, fuse sizes, and size of controls connected to the PV output.
Refer to section 690.8 of the National Electrical Code for an additional multiplying factor of 125 percent (80
percent derating) which may be applicable.
The module or panel should be installed in accordance with the latest National Electrical Code (USA), Canadian
Electrical Code (Canada) or applicable national/international electric standards for the installation country.
The modules are class C fire rated and evaluated at 50lb/ft2 as maximum load.
Warning!
During sunlight hours even at low light levels, there is a risk of shock. This hazard increases when multiple
modules are connected together to provide higher system voltage or current levels. To reduce the risk of
electrical shock or burns, modules may be covered with an opaque material during installation to avoid shock
or burns. Do not touch live terminals with bare hands. Dangerous voltages may also be present at night from
connections to batteries and feedback from inverters or other parts of the system.
Cover all modules in the PV array with an opaque cloth or material before making or breaking electrical
connections.
All installations must be performed in compliance with all applicable regional and local codes.
There are no user serviceable parts within the module. Do not attempt to repair any part of the module.
Installation should be performed only by authorized personnel.
Remove all metallic jewelry prior to installing this product to reduce the chance of accidental exposure to
live circuits.
