MOUNTING THE SOLAR PANEL
Select a position in which the solar panel will have maximum sun exposure throughout the
day. Try to install your solar panel so that nothing casts a shadow on it during any portion
of the day. Consider sun position and length of shadows in all seasons. Even a small
shadow cast by a guy line or small branch can affect the efficiency of the solar panel.
