2.4. Installation Manual
Use this installation manual to aid in installation.
The installation of an electrical system such as this, fall under the guidelines of the NEC in the USA. Canadian electrical codes have jurisdiction in Canada.
These instructions are not intended to be used in lieu of these local and federal codes, but rather are used as specific to this product.
You may need to consult with a professional solar installer or electrical inspector when in doubt on code specific questions and system installation issues.
Even though the VE Panel incorporates and simplifies numerous separate electrical circuits into one enclosure, an inverter system such as this is still a very sophisticated and somewhat complicated electrical system.
WARNING: Incorrect installation or servicing may result in a risk of electric shock, fire, or other safety hazard. |
