Step 7:
Ground the Array
Insert a Ground Zep Into Module
Insert a Ground Zep in the Zep
Groove of any module around the
array perimeter.
Start with the set screw at 9
o’clock position (pointing left).
Using either the Zep Tool or the Flat Tool (shown), lock
the Ground Zep into place by turning 1/4 turn clockwise.
After the Ground Zep is turned 90 degrees, the set screw
should be pointing straight up.
This locks the Ground Zep into the Zep Groove and
creates a solid ground bond with the module frame.
Connect Ground Zep to Building Ground/Earth.
Insert solid copper ground wire into the ground wire
retention slot and turn the set screw wtih a flat-bladed
screwdriver until the ground wire is captured by the set
screw. To fully secure, torque the set screw as follows:
•
14-10 AWG: 40 inch-lbs
•
8 AWG:
45 inch-lbs
•
6 AWG:
50 inch-lbs
NOTE:
If the array contains an unbroken row or column of Hybrid Interlocks or
Thermal Expansion Joints, a Ground Zep is required on both sides of the
break. See
