Working of Each Component
Let us now understand in detail as to what solar installation accessories basically do:
Solar Base Plates
These ensure a proper foundation for solar panel structures. Solar base plates are strong enough to hold the weight of solar panels whether you install them on the roof, ground or other surfaces. It provides structural stability not only to solar panel structure but also to the entire installation.
End Z Clamps
These are Z-shaped metallic tools that are used for the purpose of holding solar panels to the structure. This shape ensures proper grip and no gaps between mounting structure and solar panels.
Middle U Clamps
These U-shaped clamps are located in the middle of mounting rail and are used to hold two solar panels simultaneously. They are used in pairs on rail of solar panel frames. Their purpose is to hold the panels so that they do not slide down or away from each other which might cause them to fall off their mounts.
Solar Degree Angles
These are angle-adjustment mechanism that makes sure solar panels are installed at the right angle. This ensures that the panels receive the maximum amount of sunlight. Further adjustments is possible by turning the knobs in response to changes in angle of sunlight over time.
Solar Nuts and Bolts
These are crucial accessories for attaching solar panel frames to mounting brackets. They come in different shapes, sizes and materials and provide the necessary support to the structure.
Power Snap
It is an anti-theft clip which secures solar panels and other equipment. This clip sides into the module frame and snaps into the rail. They come in different sizes, are easy to install and affordable as well.
Fastener Chemical Bottle
This is necessary to securely bond the nails and screws to the roof or other surfaces. While using this a nozzle and specially designed gun are used to inject the chemical into the drilled hole before fixing the bolts. After the bolts are fixed it is left to dry and solidify with the concrete surface.
Solar Wires
This is the medium through which electricity passes from solar panels to inverter. There are two types of wires available in the market, one is AC wire and another is DC wire.
Solar Connectors
MC4 solar connectors help in connecting solar panels in a series or parallelly. While connecting you need to insert the male connector into the female connector.
Charge Controller
It is an electronic device that makes sure how much power passes from the solar array to the solar battery. This is to make sure that the battery is not overcharged and that the power does not run back to the solar panel and drain the batteries.
Earthing Kit
This kit protects the solar system from thunder
Safety Equipment
These are for the protection of solar system from any faulty conditions. They include circuit breakers, surge arrestors, grounding methods etc.
Lightning Arrestor
This device helps by offering protection from lightning.
Direct Current Distribution Board (DCDB)/ Alternating Current Distribution Board (ACDB)
DCDB help in connecting the output power from solar panels to the inverter. While ACDB transfers the electric power from the solar inverter to the AC load system via an energy meter.
Net Meter and Solar Meter
Net meter is an important component in an on-grid solar system as it helps to keep the reading of how much current you export to the grid and import from it. This helps in claiming credit for future electricity bills. We at Das Energie Private Limited offer all these accessories manufactured by the top solar brands in the country.
