Greetings wrenches, Anyone have any photos they'd like to share for an interview-based article in SolarPro about designing PV systems for extreme environments?
For the purposes of this article, we’re focusing on mechanical loads and stresses. Think high design wind speeds (Florida), high snow loads (high elevations and latitudes), and coastal corrosion. We’re interested in both: Photos of best practices, Photos of common mistakes And photos of field failures (separated frames, laminates sucked out of frames, broken modules, etc.) Generally speaking, we run photos of the best practices with a courtesy credit and photos of failures anonymously without a credit. In terms of field failures, I think damages resulting from an act of God are just as interesting to installers as photos of avoidable damages. We can clarify which is which in the caption. If you have any photos or expertise you’d like to share, please contact me directly via email: david.brear...@solarprofessional.com <mailto:david.brear...@solarprofessional.com> Thanks!
