Grounding

 

All permanently mounted modules have to be provided with appropriate 

grounding. The  grounding lug  should be  suitable for outdoor use with aluminum.  The 

grounding method of the frame of arrays shall comply with the NEC, article 250 and also 

meet UL 1703 standard.  Lay-in-Lug ground part with 32 threads per inch (e.g.

the lay-

in-lug with UL file number E34440, part # GBL-4DB), with size #10-32 ½ inch stainless 

steel thread cutting screw, and using a 20 lb*inch torque, should be mounted to one of the 

4 mm  diameter grounding holes marked as grounding hole on the frame.  When the 

module system is used, it should  be connected to  the  ground reliably. The ground wire 

should be a naked  copper wire with surface coating only and with no  insulation  jacket. 

The area of cross-section of wire should be  sized in accordance with  the prime current 

carrying conductor. The area of cross-section of wire should meet the NEC, article 250. 

Installation  in Canada shall be in accordance with CSA C22.1, Safety Standard for 

Electrical Installations, Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1 ( refer Figure 3)
