Abstract
An installation structure of a solar cell module array in which a plurality of solar cell module strings are arranged on a desired installation face is provided. The plurality of solar cell module strings have a plurality of solar cell modules. There is an inter solar cell module connection cable to electrically connect the plurality of solar cell modules, as well as a positive string cable and a negative string cable. A non-contacting means is provided such that no contact occurs between the positive string cable and the negative string cable or between the inter solar cell module connection cable and the positive string cable or/and the negative string cable. This solar cell module array installation structure excels in safety. That is, in the array installation structure, the positive and negative string cables are wired in a desirable state so that no electric short occurs between these two cables, even when a fire occurs in the vicinity of the installation face.
