SOLAR MODULE RACKING SYSTEM
A solar module racking system including a frame. The frame includes pre-wired receptacles for rapid assembly of solar modules. The frame receives and mechanically supports each solar module. The frame arranges the solar modules in a first planar direction, in a second planar direction, and in a vertical direction that is normal to the first and second planar directions. Each pre-wired receptacles individually and electrically connect each of the solar modules after insertion of that module into the frame. The solar module racking system provides a 2 by 1 by 1 configuration or a 1 by 2 by 1 configuration for the plurality of solar modules corresponding to the first planar direction, the second planar direction, and the vertical direction. A first module and a second module are arranged in the first planar direction or the second planar direction, respectively.
1 . A solar module racking system configured to receive, arrange, and mechanically support a plurality of solar modules in at least a x by y by z configuration corresponding to a first planar direction, a second planar direction, and a vertical direction, the second planar direction being normal to the first planar direction and the vertical direction being normal to the first and second planar directions.
2 . The solar module racking system of claim 1 , further comprising:
a post mounted to a surface;
a cap mechanically coupled to the post; and
a beam arrangement slotted into the cap; and
a frame coupled to the beam arrangement.
3 . The solar module racking system of claim 1 , wherein the solar module racking system receives a top loading of the plurality of solar modules.
4 . The solar module racking system of claim 1 , wherein the solar module racking system comprises one or more arms of a frame located to minimize internal shading onto the plurality of solar modules.
5 . The solar module racking system of claim 1 , wherein the solar module racking system comprises a rail clamp frame system.
6 . The solar module racking system of claim 1 , wherein the solar module racking system comprises a window system.
