Module grounding [RE-wrenches]

[mrousso at urbanrefuge.com]

Another option that we have used with good success
(BTW, we ground each module), is to pre-plan the array
on a per module orientation.  Then we pre-load the
over-hanging edge of each module with a grounding lug
before it hits the roof, making sure that the lug's
screw is backed out.  Once a single string of modules
is erected (usually 4 to a tile-trac) we pull bare
solid #6 copper through all of the aligned lugs and
terminate it on a lug on the rack.  Its usually a
pretty easy pull.  If its a flush mount, we use a
right-angle screwdriver to set the screws in the lugs
on the wire.  Confused???  I did this on my pole mount
and I have a digital photo of the underside.  We
essentially do the same thing on all of our roof
mounts.  

Can we send photos to the list??
