SMA SC 500CP XT Installation - Manual (Page 30)

Procedure:
1. Disassemble the panels (see Section 7.2.1, page 40).
2. Disassemble the protective covers (see Section 7.2.2, page 41).
3. Prepare the cables for connection (see Section 7.3, page 44).
4. Clean the tin-plated contact surfaces in the connection area with the non-woven abrasive until they have a light
metallic sheen.
5. Clean all contact surfaces in the connection area using a clean cloth and ethanol cleaning agent and do not
touch the contact surfaces after cleaning.
6. Connect the cables in accordance with the circuit diagram. Only use the screws, nuts and washers included in the
scope of delivery and make sure that the screw heads always point forwards.
7. Secure the cables on the cable support rail. This will prevent the cable from being pulled out inadvertently.
8. Mount the protective covers (see Section 7.2.2, page 41).
9. Mount the panels (see Section 7.2.1, page 40).
