2.2 Safety Instructions
DANGER!
Danger to life due to high voltages in the Sunny Boy!
• All work on the Sunny Boy must only be carried out by qualified personnel.
• The appliance is not to be used by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been
given supervision or instruction.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
CAUTION!
Parts of the enclosure can get hot - Risk of burn injuries!
• Do not touch the enclosure of the Sunny Boy during operation.
NOTICE!
Foreign objects or water entering the Sunny Boy can damage the device!
Once the Electronic Solar Switch has been pulled out, the Sunny Boy only provides
protection rating IP21. The Sunny Boy is then no longer protected against water and
contamination with dirt!
In order that the protection rating IP65 is also provided during a temporary
decommissioning, proceed as follows:
• Unplug all DC plug connectors and seal them with the protecting caps provided.
• Attach the Electronic Solar Switch again.
Grounding the PV generator
Comply with the local requirements for grounding the modules and the PV generator. SMA
Solar Technology recommends to electrically bond the module frames, the racks and all
metal surfaces and ground these in order to have optimal protection of the system and
personnel.
