Ground photovoltaic aluminum bracket installation diagram

Can a racking system be used to ground a PV module?

This racking system may be used to ground and/or mount a PV module complying with UL 1703 only when the specic module has been evaluated for grounding and/or mounting in compliance with the included instructions. The system is a non-separately derived system.

Why should you install a solar panel bracket?

The purpose of installing the bracket is to better fix the solar panel. If there is a more convenient and feasible method to fix the solar panel. PVMars will definitely recommend it to you, and effective solutions are based on solar panels’ characteristics and your on-site installation environment.

Are solar stack roof mounting systems ul 2703 listed?

Solar Stack Roof mounting systems are UL 2703 listed. Standard for safety UL/ANSI 2703, Mounting Systems, Mounting devices, Clamping/Retention Devices and Ground lugs for use with PV modules. Solar Stack systems have been evaluated for module-to-system bonding and mechanical load to the requirements of UL/ANSI 2703.

How do I connect a solar stack module to a pedestal?

Modules should be bonded to the Solar Stack pedestals with the manufacturer approved middle/end clamps. Grounding hardware (as a part of the module clamps) forms secure electrical bonds with both the module and the pedestal, resulting in many parallel grounding paths throughout the system.

What are the components of a solar stack pedestal system?

The system is a non-separately derived system. The following components have been evaluated for bonding as the fault current ground path: PV module, Mid Clamp, End Clamp, Pedestal and Ground Lugs. Solar Stack pedestals can be installed on BUR (Build Up Roong), Mineral surface (Modied Bitumen), EPDM, PVC, TPO, Hypalon and Concrete roofs.

How do I install a ground mount?

Determine the model of ground mount that you are installing. If you are using the High Wind Ground Mount, the length of the cross bracing will be 131.45”, if you are using the Standard Ground Mount model the cross bracing will be 170.6” Establish the highest point (ballast or ground screw) where an A-Frame foot will be located.
