We've done lots of systems both ways - using rails such as Unirac
solarmount or ProSolar is definately more forgiving compared to mounting
directly on the seams. The adjustability of the Unirac L-foot is
particularly nice. If you mount directly to the seams you need to mount
in landscape orientation and alignment can be tricky. <br>
<br>
You still need to ground your array, however. Were you planning on using
weebs?<br>

<b>Subject:</b> [RE-wrenches] Seam clamps with or w/o rails<br>
<br>
Hello Wrenches,<br><br>
We have a system to install on a roof with standing seams, and are
planning to use S-5 clamps. The current plan is to use Solarmount
rails. This seemed to be a good solution for grounding, rather than
putting lugs on every module, and also would allow better air circulation
under the array.<br><br>
Would you agree with this concept, or would you recommend connecting the
modules straight to the seam clamps? Are there any down sides to
using the rails with the S-5s?<br><br>
Thanks,<br><br>
