4 FAQs about Specifications and dimensions of photovoltaic support poles

What are photovoltaic support structures?

The support structures are the elements that allow the fixing of the modules on the roofs where the photovoltaic installation must be housed, constituting a main element of the solution. Circutor offers a complete range of configurable support structures for any type of installation and roof.

What size pole do I need for a solar array?

A metal pole at least 2“ (50 mm) in diameter must be used with the modules attached at the top of the pole. The pole must be anchored in concrete at least one meter deep in the ground. The pole and mounting structure shall be sufficiently rigid to prevent twisting in the wind or if large birds alight on the array.

What is the minimum clearance between PV modules & roofing material?

Minimum clearance between the PV module (s) and the roofing material must be at least 10 cm. It is recommended that the module mounting structure be supported on top of a pole at least 50 cm long or fixed with supporting angles at four positions.

What are the requirements for a solar array?

The pole must be anchored in concrete at least one meter deep in the ground. The pole and mounting structure shall be sufficiently rigid to prevent twisting in the wind or if large birds alight on the array. The support structure shall be able to withstand winds up to 120 km/h (150 km/h in windy areas).
