Follow these procedures to ensure extended safety and performance.

C-1

Appendix C: Service and Maintenance

Ecolibrium recommends

periodic re-inspection of

the installation for loose

components, loose

fasteners, and any

corrosion, such that if

found, the affected

components are to be

immediately replaced.
If module removal is

required, it is the

installers responsibility

to ensure the ground

path is maintained

when the module is

removed. One of two

bonding options may be

utilized:

Option 1

(for use on a

single row array):
A. Install an approved

ground lug on adjacent

modules.

Wiley WEEB-LUG-6.7

Ilsco Lay-in Lug GBL-

4DBT

Burndy CL50-1TN

Other UL 2703 listed,

outdoor rated (by

others) ground lugs may

also be suitable for this

system if approved by

the AHJ (Authority

Having Jurisdiction).

Install ground lug on

both of the modules

adjacent to the module

to be removed. Use the

grounding hole on the

frame of the module.

See section 10 for

additional ground lug

information.
B. Connect a Bonding

Jumper.
Lay a bare #6 CU

conductor (by others)

into the two lay in lugs

connected to the

adjacent modules.

Option 2

(for use on a

multiple row array):
Install a row to row

bonding on either end

of the row.

#6 CU Conductor

Underside of

Module

Install approved grounding lug per
lug manufacturers instructions. See

Section 10.

Deburr any field-drilled holes.

Wiley WEEB Lugs are “single use

only“.
