Sloped ground mount

[bcroe]

Can't go on roof, too many trees.
J. P. M.- The left front panel will be 1ft off the ground and the right front panel will end up about5ft above grade, way to high for the racking system. To lower the system on the left side I would have to level the area for the install. That leads to more permits and building retaining walls. would rather not go there.

If I understand, the ground slopes down from east to west. So don't try to level the bottom of your panels, just slope them
as much: the sun doesn't care. One of my arrays has a 6' height difference from end to end. It just follows the slope of the
ground, but I used a laser to make it perfectly straight. When you measure its angle to the sun, use a protractor that is held
vertical by a level, NOT along the edge of the panel. Bruce Roe
