Design Considerations
Failing to plan is planning to fail. Although the myPV CommsSafe is very simple to
design for and incorporate into your project design, there are aspects of the equipment
that should be considered in the initial design to avoid unnecessary costs and difficulties
during construction.
Installation Location
The installation location for the myPV CommsSafe is easy to locate on the solar site. A
concrete pad with a standard unistrut is built on site during initial construction - and is
designed to be the installation location for the myPV CommsSafe.
The auxiliary power available from the site will be either 120 volt AC or 480 volt 3 phase
power. In the event that AUX power is not always available - the 1.5kV DC is an option
for powering up off of the array. Further details are provided in our Quick Start Guide.
