CCS grounding for solar installations

Original publication: · Reviewed:

Solar-site grounding involves the installed conductor, connections and exposure conditions. Keep that function separate from module interconnection or PV ribbon; a grounding-wire discussion does not specify a cell interconnect.

Review the application

A CCS grounding discussion does not establish suitability as photovoltaic ribbon or module interconnection material. Those requirements belong to a separate material and process review.

Information to provide

Confirm the proposed construction

Agree on conductor function and project duty.

Evaluate samples and the specified connections/environment.

Complete the project acceptance plan before material substitution.
