Safety and certification of eTile solar roofs - a complete guide
Resistance to extreme weather conditions
eTile solar roofs have undergone a series of rigorous strength tests, simulating the most extreme weather conditions that can occur in our climate. We have paid special attention to hail resistance - our modules are tested using hail balls the size of golf balls. Thanks to the use of specially tempered glass with a thickness of 4mm, the modules are able to withstand hail impacts up to 25mm in diameter.
The eTile mounting system is designed for extreme wind conditions. Each module is doubly protected - by a special binder and mechanical fasteners, which prevent the panels from slipping even during strong winds. In stress tests, eTile roofs withstand loads of up to 5400 Pa, which corresponds to a pressure of several tens of centimeters of snow or gusts of wind with a speed of more than 130 km/h.
Electrical Safety
The safety of the electrical installation in eTile roofs is based on several key elements:
- All wires are conducted in steel cable trays located between the patches, which protects them from mechanical damage and rodent access
- The system uses certified MC4 connectors from the Swiss company Stäubli, recognized as the safest in the industry
- The installation is equipped with a multi-level security system, including fire breakers and overcurrent protection
Certificates and research
eTile solar roofs have all the necessary certificates confirming their safety:
- BROOF certificate (t1) confirming non-proliferation of fire
- TÜV certificates confirming compliance with electrical safety standards
- CERBUD certificates for mechanical resistance and tightness
Monitoring and early detection of faults
Each eTile installation is equipped with an advanced monitoring system that allows you to:
- Continuous monitoring of plant operation parameters
- Immediate detection of irregularities
- Automatic notifications of potential problems
- Remote control of the system when needed
Professional assembly and service
The safety of the system depends largely on the correct installation. Therefore:
- We only work with certified assembly teams
- Each installation undergoes a detailed acceptance audit
- We provide regular technical inspections
- We offer a quick service response in case of any irregularities
Long-term guarantees
Our belief in the safety and durability of eTILE systems is confirmed by comprehensive guarantees:
- 25-year guarantee to maintain a minimum of 80% efficiency
- 10 years product warranty
- 12 years warranty for inverter
The safety of eTile solar roofs is the result of a combination of the highest quality materials, advanced manufacturing technologies and rigorous assembly procedures. All applied solutions have been confirmed by certificates and many years of testing in real conditions.
