NOTE! When connecting up more than two strings:
-
First introduce, connect and fix (with strain-relief devices) the strings
nearest the wall;
-
then introduce, connect and fix the outside strings.

After finishing all the connecting-up work, tie all the DC(+) string-cables together
with cable ties
Tie all the DC(-) string-cables together with cable ties
Check whether the DC voltage on the DC isolator is < 530 V
Check the polarity on the main inverter leads
