Photovoltaic panel frame grounding wire
The following table shows the NEC grounding wire size recommendation. The higher the AWG number, the smaller the wire. Note also that these are the minimum wire sizes you can use. These are the smallest allowable for safe grounding, but if you can get a large wire, use it. If you are going to install a solar panel in your.
Grounding solar panels is necessary because: 1. It reduces built up charge, making your system less attractive to lightning. 2. If a charge builds or lightning hits, the discharge will go into the earth instead of your cable.
Drive an 8 foot long copper plated rod into the ground at least 8 feet deep. The dryer the land, the more ground rods you should use. Space the rods 10 feet apart. Use clamps and #6 AWG bare.
The solar panel metal frame, inverter frame, AC generator and the negative side of your solar system must all be grounded. If a wind generator is connected to your solar panel, it must be grounded too. The ground wires and the.
