Abstract

See full text

A photovoltaic (PV) panel and rack grounding connector may be constructed of a one piece extruded aluminum body. The body may have two extruded openings configured to accept a ground wire at one end and a PV panel or rack flange at the other. Both openings may have extruded serrations to pierce oxidation on the wire end and anodized plating on the PV panel or rack end. Stainless steel or other screws are provided on each end of the connector for securing the wire and panel, respectively, to the connector and to prevent corrosion. The connector may be asymmetric in that the opening on one end for the ground wire is a different shape than the opening on the opposite end for the PV panel.
