Are you considering installing a roof solar power plant at home but unclear about which key components you need? Don’t worry, this article will provide you with a detailed explanation.
Roof Solar Power Plant Installation Guide
1. Solar Panels
- Made of tempered glass, responsible for converting sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity.
- The most expensive component in the entire system but has a lifespan of over 25 years.
2. Installation Fasteners
- Mid-Clamp and Side-Clamp: Used to fix solar panels and ensure their stable installation on the roof.
- Mid-Clamps are sandwiched between two panels, while side-clamps secure the edges of the panels.
- Choose different materials according to the roof type, such as aluminum brackets suitable for metal or tile roofs, while carbon steel, aluminum, or hot-dip galvanized brackets are suitable for concrete roofs.
4. Roof Connection Kit
- Includes L-shaped feet, hooks, and mini-tracks, etc., used to connect brackets and roofs.
5. Waterproof Measures
- Use waterproof rubber to protect the roof, especially in solutions that require drilling, to prevent water leakage.
6. Electrical Connection
- DC Wires: Used to connect solar panels, ensuring the current flows in one direction.
- AC Cables: Connect each micro-inverter.
- Micro-Inverters: Convert DC electricity into alternating current (AC) for household use.
- Grounding Components: Ensure that all potentially faulty conductive metal components are reliably grounded to minimize electrical hazards.
