Solar Panel Installation Labels
• National Electric Code (NEC) demands
proper marking and labeling of solar
systems. Tyco Electronics labels are
designed to withstand harsh outdoor
environments. The labels can be
exposed to rain, intense sunlight, UV
rays, snow, ice, cold temperature, sand,
salt spray and condensation from
fog. The solar labels adhere to IEC
61215 / IEC 61646
Applications & Materials
• APPLICATIONS
– Use at the Main Service Disconnect, and
DC conduit, raceways, enclosures, cable
assemblies and junction boxes on solar
photovoltaic installations.
• MATERIALS
– 3 mil cast PVC film
– Permanent acrylic adhesive
– UV resistant over lam when applicable
Specifications & Approvals
• Specifications & Approvals
– ASTM D 3652 : Physical Construction
– ASTM D 3330 : Adhesion
– ASTM D 2979 : Adhesion
– ASTM D 1000 : Flammability
– ASTM D 3759 : Tensile Strength and Elongation
– MIL-STD 202G : Method 215
– ASTM D 3424 : Method 4, UV Light exposure
– ASTM G85 : Annex 5, Salt Spray - Prohesion
– ASTM 81531 : Print Adherence
Reflective Solar Labels
• Reflective solar labels are manufactured
using retro reflective marking to provide
emergency responders with appropriate
warning and guidance relative to isolating
the solar electric system. The label(s) were
designed to be in accordance with the
dimensional, functional and verbiage
requirements established by the California
Fire Marshall’s April 2009, Solar Photovoltaic
Installation Guideline.

Solar Rating Labels
• The Solar Rating Labels are designed to meet the
industry needs by providing a white printable area to
add important system information such as;
maximum system voltage and system current. The
same robust materials are used in the construction
of these labels as with the standard solar
identification labels noted above. The system rating
data can be added using thermal transfer ink ribbon
and printer or by using an indelible marker. For best
results, it is recommended to use the UV resistant
clear overlaminate label over the printed label for
further protection.
Applications & Materials
