Abstract: A mounting assembly includes a rail configured to support a photovoltaic module. The rail includes a first slot, a second slot, and a web extending between the first slot and the second slot. The web being offset from a plane extending along an outer surface of the rail, so as to form a recess in the second side of the rail. The mount assembly further includes a clip configured to be secured to the rail and to a secondary structure. The clip includes a base having a flange extending from an end of the base, and an arm extending from the base in a second direction opposite the first direction, the flange being inserted in the second slot when the clip is secured to the rail and the secondary structure and at least a portion of the arm abuts the recess of the rail when the clip is secured to the rail.

Abstract: A clamp assembly for securing a solar panel module includes a clamp base, a clip movably connected to the clamp base, and a biasing fastener extending through the clamp base and the clip. The biasing fastener is configured to bias the clip from the clamp base.

Abstract: A solar panel mounting system includes two base rails each having a south clamp, a north stanchion with a north clamp, and ballast rails connected thereto. The base rails are secured to a structure for the installation of solar panels through one or more roof pads. The ballast rails extend transverse to the base rails. The south clamp and north clamp are engaged to secure solar panels. The system also includes a wire management clip for managing wires of the solar installation.

Abstract: A mounting device may include a hook arm including a first vertical portion, a center portion coupled to the first vertical portion at a first end of the center portion, and a second vertical portion coupled to the center portion at a second end of the center portion. The mounting device may also include a hook plate coupled to the hook arm at the second vertical portion via a fastener. The hook plate may include a third vertical portion and a base portion to couple the hook plate to a surface. The mounting device may further include an anti-rotation system to restrict rotation of the hook plate relative to the hook arm.

Abstract: A clamping mechanism includes a body defining a first end, a second end, a module engagement component disposed proximate to the first end, and a clamp actuation component disposed proximate to the second end. The module engagement component engages a portion of a solar module frame. The clamping mechanism includes a rail engagement component that engages at least a portion of a rail to which the solar module frame couples. The clamping mechanism includes a fastener that engages the clamp actuation component for imparting movement to the module engagement component such that the module engagement component engages the portion of the solar module frame.

Abstract: A ballast system includes a first ballast tray and a second ballast tray. The first ballast tray has a first side profile including a south leg connected to a north leg. The second ballast tray has a second side profile that is different than the first side profile. A length of the north leg of the second side profile is greater than a length of the south leg of the first side profile, and a height of the north leg of the second side profile is substantially equal to a height of the south leg of the first side profile. The north leg of the second side profile includes a curvature so as to partially curve toward the south leg of the second side profile.
