Cable characteristics
Size: 2.5mm

Type: CE cable
Temperature rating of conductor: -40~90°C
Module configuration
# Maximum series configuration: please refer to Table 1
(This value is calculated under the condition of Voc at -40°C.)
# Maximum parallel configuration: (Parallel connection of each string
shall be conducted with following two options. Any other parallel
connections are prohibited.)
a) Case of using the diodes: 1 diode per maximum 2 parallel strings
(Connect a diode or more in series for every string or every 2
parallel strings for protection of module from reverse current over
load.)
b) Case of using the fuses: 1 fuse per every string (Connect a fuse for
every single string for protection of module from reverse current
over load.)
Inverter requirement
All the modules must have positive potential to the ground.
To do this, for example, use an inverter with internal minus-grounding
or set the negative DC pole of the inverter to the ground.
The grounding must be in line with the local laws and regulations for
the electrical safety of the PV system.
Please contact the inverter manufacturer for details.
Connection cables requirement
The module is fitted with SMK Corporation connectors which are
mechanically and electrically compatible with Multi-Contact
PV-KST/KBT 4 (as of 19
th
Nov 2010).
To extend the module connecting leads, only Multi-Contact connectors
(PV-KST/KBT 4 , as of 19
th
Corporation (CCT9901-2452F / CCT9901-2362F) must be used.
The connections must be completely done and locked.
