What is included in the JA Solar Module installation manual?

Thank you for choosing JA SOALR Modules! This Installation Manual contains essential information for electrical and mechanical installation that you should know before handling, installing JA Solar Modules. This Manual also contains safety information you need to be familiar with.

Can JA Solar modules be installed on a roof?

JA solar modules have been listed as Class A according to IEC 61730-2 standard. For roof installations, modules should be mounted over a fire resistant covering suitable for this application, with adequate ventilation between the modules backsheet and the mounting surface. Roof constructions and installations may affect the fire safety of building.

Do JA Solar modules need a dc cathode?

For optimal performance, JA Solar Modules should only be used in configurations where the DC cathode of the Modules array is connected to ground. Failure to comply with this requirement will reduce the performance of the system and invalidate JA Solar’s Limited Power Warranty for Modules.

Do JA Solar modules corrode?

JA Solar modules have passed the IEC 61701 salt-mist, but galvanic corrosion can occur between the aluminum frame of the modules and mounting or grounding hardware if such hardware is comprised of dissimilar metals.

How do JA Solar modules work?

The junction boxes used with JA Solar modules contain bypass diodes wired in parallel with the PV cell strings. In the case of partial shading, the diodes bypass the current generated by the non-shaded cells, thereby limiting modules heating and performance losses. Bypass diodes are not over-current protection devices.

How to unpack JA Solar modules?

Store pallets in a ventilated, rain-proof and dry location until the modules are ready to be unpacked. Please unpack the package of JA Solar modules according to “JA Solar Modules Unpacking Instruction”. Do not lift the modules by grasping the module’s junction box or electrical leads in any condition.
