Sorry for not being more specific. This is a "traditional" pitched roof in
that it is sheathed with plywood and roofed with comp shingles, but the framing
underneath is cold-formed light gauge steel. After some more research I am
looking at the EcoFastenSolar Greenfasten1 with a ¼" SS TEK scr

Thanks for the candid response.
I assure you that I am one of those "old
off-grid guys".
The system I am working on is 120V (L, N) only, and requires the
inverter/charger to have separate "grid-in/out", "genset in", and
"inverter output"
I would be very wary of a riveted solution.
A few years ago we had an engineer design a type of L foot attachment for a
steel roof on a storage barn. He designs it to use blind stainless steel
rivets, and we installed it with his supervision.
It didn't survive a single winter here in upstate NY.
We never got a chance to use them but looked into them numerous times. A
product called Rivstud. Essentially a rivet with a stud on top which you
can mount the L foot toworth looking intoespecially if it is a big
job.

I'm fond of the SnapNRack metal roof base. You can use it with any suitable
fastener.
