-Mount the solar panels
Determine a location for the solar panel that is exposed in direct sunlight
and clear of any shading such as trees, roof overhangs, etc. Ideally, the
panels should be positioned to minimize the wiring distance between
the solar panel and the combiner box.
For Northern Hemisphere installations, the solar panels should be
mounted at an angle facing true south (true north for Southern Hemi-
sphere installations). The mounting angle should be equal to the
latitude location of where you are installing the solar panels. For exam-
ple, the latitude of Miami, Florida, USA is 25 degrees. Therefore, solar
panels installed in this area should ideally be facing true south at a tilt
angle of 25 degrees.
