Re: [RE-wrenches] Array Mock-up Software

here are too many nuances to sizing roofs, dealing with setbacks and obstructions, and dealing with skew in aerial imagery. A single person dedicated to this task seems much more plausible. Jason Szumlanski On Wed, Oct 25, 2017 at 1:32 PM, Chad Waits wrote: > Wrenches, > > Wondering

Re: [RE-wrenches] Hurricanes Forces

I generally agree on all points. I'd love to use three rails on all systems, but there is an economic factor, and as Tom mentions, a third rail doesn't necessarily stop glass being sucked out or a tree landing on the array. At what point do we cease over-engineering the mounting structure and the m

Re: [RE-wrenches] Hurricane damage to solar arrays

out values are pretty high. It looks like the attachment points into the roof are not going to be the failure point in the systems in Florida, but there is a LOT of work to be done still. It's going to be a very interesting few months ahead! ​Jason Szumlanski Florida Solar Design Group​ ​ On

Re: [RE-wrenches] TPO Roofing

August, While compatible, I mentioned in another recent thread that Geocel 4500 lacks testing to ASTM standards. If you have an AHJ that cares about that kind of stuff, you might want to pass it by them first. Geocel 2300 and 3300 do meet ASTM standards per the manufacturer. Jason Szumlanski

Re: [RE-wrenches] TPO Roofing

If you can identify the brand, maybe try Anchor Products. We use their hardware on TPO. We screw down the attachments (they also make a non-penetrating version) and the roofer comes in behind to seal the patch. It's a breeze. Jason Szumlanski Florida Solar Design Group On Thu, Aug 31, 20

losed condition (shorted). This would preclude their use in a situation where opening the circuit is the preferred failure mode. Maybe someone with some more knowledge in this area can chime in on whether SSRs are a good idea in this scenario. Jason Szumlanski On Mon, Aug 28, 2017 at 10:19 PM, Nick S

Re: [RE-wrenches] Enphase installer compensation M-190's discontinued

Correction - I think it started at 15 years with labor included. I don't see how they can renege on that now. In fact, they had a power guarantee, too. They would reimburse people for lost energy as a result of warranty issues. Jason On Thu, Jul 6, 2017 at 3:02 PM, Jason Szumlanski

Re: [RE-wrenches] Enphase installer compensation M-190's discontinued

This seems odd. I thought they had a 25 year warranty originally with labor compensation, then went to 15 year at some point with no labor compensation. We have lots of M190s out there that were sold with labor coverage, so this would be important to know for certain. Jason On Thu, Jul 6, 2017
