solar racking system


The solar panel mounting system is extremely important as this connects the system to your roof. Solar mounting systems have to hold the system to the roof for 25 years or more. The system has to be designed to withstand wind loads as well as withstand extreme heat or cold. The mounting system is attached to a central point in the roof structure so the solar panel weight can be transferred to the structure of the building and everything can be anchored down for safety.


The main issues for racking systems are whether attaching the panels to the roof will allow moisture to seep in through the roof penetration as well as if the racking will be strong enough to be able to handle the weight of the panels. This is especially important considering that extra weight stress is added to the panels during periods of high wind.


Solar customers, sales and marketing staff, and the general public spend the majority of their time focused on the solar panels. The solar installers spend the majority of their installation time on the mounting and racking systems. They must make sure they are measured appropriately and installed correctly.


When the solar industry first started to scale up, installers used galvanized steel struts that were directly screwed to the roof where the solar modules were then bolted. The best practices of today call for aluminum and stainless steel mounting systems lagged to the roof support structure. New systems of today use a flashing to better prevent water damage to the building. A flashing can be thought of as a metal plate that can be slid up underneath the roof shingle so water runs over the plate and off the roof. Systems of today also integrate wire and grounding safety features directly into the racking so wires are not hanging off the panels and are less likely to be damaged.

  Can   solar panels   be mounted on a metal roof? For sure, metal roof is one of the best roof material to install solar panels, due to its durability and easy for installation. Either framed or frameless solar panels could be mounted, and the shadows of panels could keep your home cool during the summer. The Metal roof have various types. The corrugated steel roof is the basic type, which you can see everywhere. To fix solar panels on it, the solar mounting brackets need to penetrate the roof sheet and fix into the wooden or steel beam directly by screws or hanger bolts. Details as follow. 1.  L feet+self-tapping screws 2.  L feet+Solar hanger bolt L feet is widely used for its high adaptability, which do not have request on the size of metal roof sheet. For some project, below alu clamp will be developed to better adapt with the corrugated steel roof. But it is not proposed due to its unique adaptability.

A brief introduction to the earthing washer/grounding clips in solar mounting system

  Grounding PV modules  to reduce or eliminate shock and fire hazards is necessary and required by Electrical Code in countries in USA, Australia etc. The grounding guidelines of the Code es sentially state that all electrical equipment is to be grounded by means of direct attachment to an equipment grounding conductor. This can be done in many different ways. The traditional method is to use the ground bond point of each  solar panel  and connect all the panels together with heavy gauge bare copper wire. This approach can be difficult, time-consuming and costly. Some of the difficulties in grounding PV modules arise from the fact that copper conductors are typically used for electrical connections while the module frames are generally made of aluminum. The incompatibility of copper and aluminum was discovered from numerous fires in houses wired with aluminum wiring in the 1970’s. Copper and aluminum will also react and corrode. The surfaces of aluminum frames are anodized or have powd
