System Design precedes TCS Kit Specification
Establish solar electric system size
3.6KW/300W (per PV panel) = 12 PV
12/3 (PV per span) = 4 G1M-1
Determine solar PV string size
Such as 9 or 12 or 15 PV panels per string. Important for establing Input Voltage to inverters. The G1M mounts 3 PV panels at a time, so for simpler series wiring, multiples of 3 are important.
Determine number of G1M-1 kits required
Depends on the string and system sizes.
Concatenation hardware is basically a set of turnbuckles for attaching G1M stanchions to each other.
Determine number of R1X kits required
Kits mount 2x3 portrait.
Mount kits side by side.
Decide if G1M-1 stanchions are pre-assembled
Depends on system project plans and constraints.
