[RE-wrenches] factory module damage, has anyone seen this?

[Dana Orzel]

I have never seen pre-flexed modules.

I would expect your supplier to replace & collect them freight prepaid or not ever deal with them. That is not new spec equipment.

Hi Dana. 

 

I did think of that ( all kidding aside)but given the response from CS, I don’t think it’s normal. 

 

 

Weird to even think how you’d assemble it. Is the glass prebent or the frame or both?

 

I did hear from someone offsite they’d seen it on REC.

If they are Canadian maybe they are pre-flexed for snow load. Those crafty Canadians!

HI All,

 

I have some Canadian Solar bifacial BiHiKu 400 watt 72 cell modules that are bent from the factory.

 

There is no pallet damage, and the bend is the same top and bottom.

 

My question is has anyone seen this before? I this normal?

CS says its within spec which seems BS to me.

What should I ask for from CS?

 

What about return shipping cost, would this be something that I’d have to pay or CS?

 

So far they have offered $.10 per watt.  

 

What would you all do?

 

thanks in advance
