Step Five - Rail Mount Attachment

•  Attach a Rail Mount to 

each of the 4 end holes 
on the Rail Support 
Blades. If the length 
of the solar module 
being used is less than 
70-inches, place the Rail Mounts on the inside 
of the Rail Support Blades.  If the solar module 
length is 70-inches or more, place the Rail 
Mounts on the outside of the Rail Support 
Blades.  Leave the bolts on the Rail Mounts 
loose until the Rails are installed.

Step Six - Module Mounting Rail Attachment

•  Place one of the Module Mounting Rails on the two Rail Mounts installed 

on the Rail Support Blades, and center it in the north/south direction so it 
extends past both Rail Mounts the same distance.  Make sure that the Rail 
Mount slips into both of the mounting features on the bottom of the rails 
(see drawing at right).

•  Tighten the the 3/8-inch bolts with a 9/16-inch socket to 18 ft -lbs. 

•  Repeat above step for the other Module Mounting Rail.

System Grounding

•  Tamarack Module Mounting Rails and the PV module frames are electrically 

bonded together by the Tamarack Module Clamps. Th

  is creates a single electrically 

bonded unit for grounding purposes per UL 2703 requirements. Only one Ground 
Lug is required to provide equipment grounding for the entire column of PV 
modules.

• Th

  e Ground Lug can be attached at any location desired on either one of the two Module Support Rails.   

•  Connect the ground lug to the ground wire in the system according to local code.
