SunModo’s secret: Built-in grounding pins in easy-to-use components invisibly pierce rail coatings to form a reliable, durable grounding connection as part of the natural installation process.
SunModo president Rick Campfield said: "Installers told us one of the greatest hassles to PV installation was managing the clumsy assortment of bonding connections to properly ground the racking system.
"So, our talented engineering team got to work."
The SunModo next generation Self-Grounding System includes convenient T-bolts with locking features, mid and end clamps, rail splices, shared rail adaptors and lugs, all featuring grounding pins. It conveniently handles landscape or portrait configuration to minimize roof time and parts required. The self-grounding system spares installers the need to order, stock and transport additional grounding hardware to the rooftop.
The product line is the subject of two patents and one patent pending, has completed UL 2703 certification, and is available exclusively from SunModo and its preferred distributors.
"Because this self-grounding system takes the pain out of the grounding process, we believe this innovation will quickly become an industry standard of solar professionals who are quick to embrace convenient, affordable and reliable solutions." said Campfield.
