3.2.3 Insertion systems

AEG solar modules are compatible with the insertion
systems of selected manufacturers. For more information,
and for a compatibility assessment of the insertion
system you wish to use, contact the AEG service team
(see Section 6 „Contact").

3.2.4 Loading capacity

The PV module's load resistance is rated as:
Wind load: 2400 Pa / Snow load: 5400 Pa.
Please note this could vary according to the diff erent
mounting systems and configurations.
For standard conditions, low loading capacity applies:
AEG modules are tested under a maximum positive
pressure of 2400 Pa, and negative pressure of 2400
Pa; they are designed to meet a maximum positive
pressure of 1600 Pa, and negative pressure of 1600 Pa.
For extreme conditions (e.g.: heavy snow), high loading
capacity applies: AEG modules are tested under a
maximum positive pressure of 5400 Pa, and negative
pressure of 2400 Pa; they are designed to endure a
maximum positive pressure of 3600 Pa, and negative
pressure of 1600 Pa. Both low and high load design

were tested with a safety factor of 1.5 times.
The project's design loads depend on construction,
applicable standards, location and local climate.
Determination of the design loads is the responsibility of
the racking suppliers and/or professional engineers. For
detailed information, please follow the local structural
code or contact your professional structural engineer.
3.3 Electrical Installation and Grounding

3.3.1 General remarks

Modules electrically connected together in a series/
parallel configuration generate DC electrical energy,
which can be converted to AC by mean of a solar
inverter. When modules are connected in series, the
total voltage is equal to the sum of individual voltages.
For applications requiring high currents, photovoltaic
modules can be connected in parallel; the total current is
equal to the sum of individual currents.
The resulting PV system can then be connected to
the local utility grid system. As the policies of local
utilities and technical rules concerning the connection
of renewable energy systems to power grids vary from
region to region, please consult a qualified system
designer or integrator to design a system compliant
with the related directives. Permits are normally required
for installing a PV system and the utility must formally
approve and inspect the system before its connection to
the grid can be accepted. The connection of the inverter
to the grid needs to be done by a competent, authorized
company. The electrical installation of the PV system
must be carried out in accordance with the respective
National Electrical Codes or applicable National
Regulations.

3.3.2 Electrical installation

To avoid mismatch, power loss or damage to the PV
system, do not use diff erent module types within the
same circuit.
The modules are fitted with two pre-assembled sunlight
resistant, isolated cable leads, which end with PV fast
connectors for the electrical connection of the system
(positive [+] and negative [-] terminals). Connectors
are Multi-Contact (MC4) or Multi-Contact compatible
(MC4-compatible). Cables and connectors must not be
removed or cut off .
