I have the same question, only regarding pole mounts.

Mornin,


I'm looking at mounting an Enphase M190 system on a standing seam metal roof and was considering using the S-5-PV clamps (as opposed to just the S-5's and L-feet), which do not use any mounting rails.  No rails means no where to properly mount the M190's!?!
It was suggested to mount the M190's to each module frame using a fashioned L-bracket, makes sense, but this would require drilling holes in the module frame, and wouldn't that void the module warranty?  
Also, am i the only one who is wondering if hanging a 4.4 pound inverter off of the module frame will potentially cause some sagging/deformation of the frame over the life of the system?  Is this how those "andalay" modules support their inverters? 


thanks,
benn
