A solar panel mounting system connects panels to a roof or ground-level support. Compare roof mounts and ground-mounted supports against the installation surface, panel layout, and project plans. The right attachment method depends on the structure that will carry the array.

Solar cells use a phenomenon called the photovoltaic effect to convert light into electricity. Many materials exhibit this property, and scientists have designed a solar panel substructure to achieve this effect. In addition, solar cell manufacturers are experimenting with a solar panel substructure that is more light-sensitive than the standard silicone ones.

Solar Panel Substructure

A solar panel frame holds a panel in position and transfers its load to the supporting structure. Check frame dimensions and attachment details against the panel specifications, and confirm that roof or ground supports suit the site. Local building requirements and the manufacturer’s instructions should guide the final installation.

How do I choose roof or ground mounting?

Match the mount to the installation surface and the panel layout. Check the project plans and local building requirements before specifying attachments.

What should I check before installation?

Confirm that the supporting structure can carry the system and that the mounting details suit the roof or ground conditions. Follow the panel and mounting hardware manufacturers’ installation instructions.

Can one mounting frame fit every panel?

No. Check the frame’s dimensions and attachment method against the panel specifications before installation.
