The Right Way!® | +61 3 8595 7001 | www.s-5.com.au 18 Designed in USA Aluminium Ground Tray Clamp • Accommodates ground wire size #14 AWG to 4 AWG • Tin-plated aluminium for durable, long-lasting corrosion resistance • Accommodates most popular styles of cable tray with inside or outside flange • Quick and easy installation • No drilling or special tools required • Setscrew bonds clamp to the cable tray while another setscrew securely fastens the grounding conductor to the clamp providing vibration resistance and outstanding pull-out values • Grounding green hardware as required in Section 8.4 of UL2703 The best practice is to fix wires to the underside of the module frames using wire clips, which prevents wires from touching the roof. Module preparation on the ground minimises your time on the roof, resulting in a smooth installation and less net time on the job. Once all components are bonded together, an earth-path chain is established and only one of the components in the chain needs a wire to connect the system to the earth (as each bonded metal component is then also earthed). Building codes require any metallic item in your solar PV system not carrying power/electricity (like the metal module frames) to be earthed. The earthing path has to go to the system ground of your building for protection in case a wire carrying electricity breaks over time and electrifies some other metallic component. These other metallic items must be electrically bonded to one another using an approved method to maintain a continuous earthing path. Some rail-less mounting solutions function as UL-listed bonding devices and make the bonded connection automatic.
