Fig. 12

WARNING: For protection from electric shock, the panel must be earthed! The product is equipped with auto-switching power supply that automatically adjusts to any 50-60Hz AC power source from 110-230 Volts. If you need to install a power plug on the power cable to allow connection to power outlets, install a grounding-type (earthed) plug, following the plug manufacturer’s instructions. If you have any doubts about proper installation, consult a qualified electrician. The maximum power consumption of single panel is 120W.
