•
When all solar modules (except for smart module) are mounted in the same plane and orientation then
all can be expected to have similar
the same inverter channel.
•
If solar modules (except for smart module) on the same installation are mounted at different angles or
orientations then energy production can normally be optimized
orientations to different inverters (or different MPPT if the inverter has more than one MPPT). Refer to
inverter manufacturers for further guidelines.
• According to Intertek-
conducted IEC 61701:2011, salt mist corrosion testin
Solar modules can be safely installed in corrosive salt areas within proximity of the ocean or sulfurous
areas.
•
According to IEC62716:2013 “Ammonia corrosion testing of photovoltaic (PV) modules” and DLG Fokus
testing for amm
onia resistance, Trina Solar modules can be safely installed in ammonia
environments, such as farm houses.
6. MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
6.1 MOUNTING METHODS
PV modules can be mounted to the substructure using either corrosion
the mounting holes on the rear of the module or specially designed module clamps.
Regardless of the fixing method the final installation of the modules must ensure that:
•
A clearance of at least 115mm(4.5in) (recommended) is provided between modul
surface of the wall or roof. If other mounting means are employed this may affect the UL Listing or
the fire class ratings.
•
The minimum distance between two modules is 10mm(0.4in).
•
The mounting method does not block the module drainage
•
Panels are not subjected to wind or snow loads exceeding the maximum permissible loads, and are
not subject
to excessive forces due to the thermal expansion of the support structures.
Note: The drain holes cannot be blocked in any situation during
A. Mounting with Bolts
The frame of each module has 4-
φ
handling capability, to secure the modules to supporting structure.

•
Secure the module in each fixing location with an M8 bolt and a flat washer, spring washer and nut
as shown in Figure 1 and tighten to a torque of 16~20 N.m(140

All parts in contact with the frame should use flat stainless steel washers of minimum
1.8mm thickness with an nut.

•
Grounding wire size (6 to 12 AWG solid bare copper) should be selected and installed underneath
the wire binding bolt.
•
The wire binding bolt should be tightened to the proper torque of 45lbf.in.
• The Tyco grou
nding bolt is only listed for use with 6 to 12 AWG bare solid copper wire.
