What is the highest PV module snow rating? 113 PSF is the highest I have seen I here in CO & ID 100 is the highest required .

It would help to know if the place will be used in the winter or summer and how big of an array in KW or Sq Ft. Customer would have to understand that you cannot guarantee it...there are some combinations of wind-snow-temp-moisture that make snow cling to anything. If this is permitted, start dropping off cookies to an engineer.

Wrenches, I have a fun one for you. We have a couple of potential clients who live in the high Sierra with a 420 LB design snow load. After hunting around, not even a three rail system comes close with any module I can find, so now I'm looking for a pole top that will dump the snow, and still handle 120 mph winds. Any ideas? I would just say sorry, no solar for you,but like many of you I love a challenge. -- Lars Örtegren/ President <http://www.californiasolarco.com/> California Solar Electric Company PO Box 480/149 E.Main St Grass Valley, CA 95945 Phone : (530)274-3671 Fax: (530)274-7518 California C-10 Electrical Contractor #779624 <http://i57.tinypic.com/14w6aac.jpg> <http://i61.tinypic.com/13znwa8.jpg> ATTENTION This E-mail may contain CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION intended only for the use of the Individual(s) named above.
