I am a big fan of manually tightening all bolts and panel clips on any array. I
have done this on a MW tracker and racking systems on schools, which were
checked by a special inspector who required them to be hand torqued and yes
it's a lot, but in many peoples minds hand tightened is worth it. I do know
folks who use a cordless drill and turn the setting down so as not to strip
bolts and then go through and torque by hand. <br>
<br>
Mostly this is a personnel opinion on the process and wanted to relay my
experiences.<br>

I am soon starting a 1000 module system, uning top down mounts, What power
tools will tighten to torque specification? I will want to tighten each
SS 1/4" nut on bolt to proper specs. This is about 2000 bolts, so i
want a power tool, either air or battery electric, or electric that will
tighten to specification.<br>

Thanks Darryl<br>
