4.2 Module Grounding
BenQ Solar PV modules have a clearly marked grounding hole on each side of the frame for
inserting the ground contact. The grounding screw and bolt are usually sold separately from
the mounting equipment.
Please make sure the grounding screw breaks the anodized surface of the module frame
around the holes. Another option is to scratch off the anodizing before the grounding
connection is made. The frame is fully insulated by the anodizaiton process, so this step is
essential for proper ground contact..
An anti-oxidation compound should be applied to the bare aluminum surface for protection.
Use a layer of insulation if the support structure material is different than the frame material
(aluminum) to prevent galvanic corrosion.
If the support structure is a non conductor, a dedicated ground cable must be connected to
each module frame by means of a suitable fastening system. The fastening system must be
spliced with a cable that has a minimum diameter of 2.5mm
2
.. Please make sure that each
module is grounded properly per local municipal requirements. The recommended assembly
of grounding screw is shown below in Figure 5.
Note: When using a Tapping Screw for grounding, the cap washer is used for buffer only and can be substituted
by any M4-M4.5 washer.
