Abstract

An integrated module frame and racking system for a solar panel is disclosed. The solar panel comprises a plurality of solar modules and a plurality of splices for coupling the plurality of solar modules together. The plurality of splices provide a way to make the connected modules mechanically rigid both during transport to the roof and after mounting for the lifetime of the system, provide wiring connections between modules, provide an electrical grounding path for the modules, provide a way to add modules to the panel, and provide a way to remove or change a defective module. Connector mount assemblies are provided on the sides of the modules to simplify the electrical assembly of modules when the modules are connected together with splices and to simplify the final connection of external wiring to the module.

Description

technical field [0001] This aspect relates generally to solar panels, and more particularly to assemblies and mounting systems for solar panels. Background technique [0002] Solar power systems are the most environmentally friendly way of generating electricity. To provide such solar power systems, there are usually solar panels consisting of several solar modules connected together. Solar panels are generally assembled directly on the roof of the building, installed on the roof of the building after ground assembly, or installed on a dedicated ground or column type installation frame. figure 1 An existing solar panel assembly 10 is shown. The solar panel in this embodiment includes three solar modules 12A-12C. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that any number of modules can be used and that these modules can be assembled into a solar panel in any configuration. [0003] Each solar panel module 12A-12C includes a junction box 14A-14C that houses cables 1...
