Abstract
A support system for retaining a photovoltaic device on a generally planar surface, without any mechanical connection to the surface, includes a frame assembly which rests upon the surface and supports one or more photovoltaic devices in a spaced apart relationship with the surface. At least one ballast pan is attached to the frame assembly. The ballast pan is configured to retain a ballast material therein. The ballast pan may comprise a peripheral ballast pan which extends along the perimeter of the assembly or it may comprise an internal ballast pan which is disposed beneath the photovoltaic device.
