10.0 MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
The module is considered to be in compliance with IEC 61730 and UL 1703 only when the module is mounted in the
manner specified by the mounting instructions below. We recommend using the following orientation to install the
module. Per UL certification standards, the maximum
number of modules connected in series/parallel for 60-
cell module is 19/1, for 72-cell module with maximum
system voltage of 1000V is 16/1 and 72-cell module with
maximum system voltage of 1500V is 24/1. However,
please refer to your local Authority Having Jurisdiction
(AHJ) as well as best installation practices for the
maximum number of modules that can be installed in
series and in parallel for your specific installation project
site and application.
