Flat single axis installation double glass module

How do I install a double glass PV module?

Insert the PV module into the clamp, and make sure the module edge touch to the EPDM closely and then tighten the nut with uniform torque values using a qualified torque wrench to ensure the double glass module is firmly secured. Trina suggests using M8 bolts to affix the double glass modules onto the clamp.

Do Trina Solar PV modules need to be tilted?

Trina Solar PV modules produce the most power when they are perpendicular to incoming sunlight. For installations where the PV modules are attached to a permanent structure, the PV modules should be tilted for optimum winter performance. The module tilt angle is measured between the solar modules and the ground.

Do duomax PV modules need to be fused?

Trina Solar requires that every DUOMAX series PV module string should be fused prior to be connected with other strings. For the maximum fuse rate, please refer to the detailed SPEC in the last page. Solar photovoltaic (PV) modules generate electricity when exposed to light. An array of many such modules can cause lethal shocks and/or burn hazards.

Are duomax modules UL 1703 compliant?

A module with exposed conductive parts is considered to be in compliance with UL 1703 only when it is electrically grounded in accordance with the instructions presented below and the requirements of the National Electrical Code. The DUOMAX modules have achieved fire rating Type 13 according UL1703 updated on 20th May 2014.

Can Trina Solar modules be installed with a grounding device?

Trina Solar modules can be installed with the use of third party listed grounding devices for grounding the metallic frames of PV modules. The devices have to be installed in accordance with the grounding device manufacturer’s specified instructions.

How do I mount a PV module to a substructure?

PV modules can be mounted to the substructure using either corrosion-proof M8 bolts placed through the mounting holes on the rear of the module or specially designed module clamps. A clearance of at least 115mm(4.5in) (recommended) is provided between modules frame and the surface of the wall or roof.
