In this blog, we’ll learn about the mounting structure of solar panels. Depending on the height of the solar roof mounting system to be installed, it is classified as follows: In this structure, panels are mounted on the rooftop with a ground clearance of fewer than 1m, at the lowest point of the panel.
The elevated structure prevents the trailing panels free from the successive row of panels. During the design, the available parameters for any rooftop solar projects would be Tilt angle based on the location, panel length and width from the datasheet, and desired mount height, that is, above the roof surface.
There are two types of solar mounting options: roof mounted and ground mounted. Roof mounted solar PV is simply where the panels are attached to the roof of a building, on either pitched or flat roofs. On a pitched roof, the panels can be mounted with brackets or embedded into the roof structure to be flush with the roof covering.
Solar panels are mounted on concrete rooftops using RCC roof mounting devices. The distance between the solar array and the solar inverter is shortened by roof-mounted racks. A ground mount involves mounting solar panels to a rack structure joined to the ground steel beams or another metal post.
A structure or framework intended to raise solar panels above the ground or roof surface is called an elevated solar mount structure. When ground area is at an all-time low or when elevation provides benefits like more solar exposure or better circulation for cooling, these buildings are commonly employed.
For this, the mounting structures play a significant role. The solar panel structures provide steadfast support to the panels as well as the BOS of solar rooftop projects to withstand for about 20 – 25 years. Therefore, evaluating the panel leg height determines the row spacing as well as the choice of mounting structures that can be used.
