Important. Read before installation.This system is intended to be installed in accordance with the requirements of Article 600 & 690 of the National Electrical Code and/or other applicable local codes. This includes proper grounding and bonding of the sign & power system. All personnel who work with electrical connections must be educated in the safe procedures for installing and repairing electrical connections before they are given the responsibility of performing such tasks. All conduit and fittings must be rain tight and are supplied by the installer. * Installation Note: If the solar panel cannot be mounted at the scoreboard due to the risk of potential damage or poor sun coverage then the solar panel, receiver enclosure, and battery enclosure may all be located remotely. The A/C power and coax outputs to the scoreboardmay then be extended 500' or more with a larger wire gauge.
Inverter/Receiver Box(Mount to front of column to ensureclear line of sight to control location)
Solar panel MUST face directly southand must also be grounded accordingto manufacturers specificationsincluded in box with panel. To determine solar panel angle andmountng instructions, see page 4.

To set the angle of your solar panel find your city or a city close to yours in the table. If the system will be primarily used in the summer months then set the panel angle at your listed latitude + 15° for optimum charging. If the system will be primarily used in the fall/winter months then set the panel angleat your listed latitude -15° for optimum charging. If the system is used all year then set the panel angle at your listed latitude for all yearaverage charging (if the panel cannot be adjusted for each season). For example, a summer time system in St. Louis, MO (Latitude of 38°) would be set to approximately 53° of tilt for optimum charging.
