General Safety Information

In-depth specialist knowledge is required to install and service a solar-photovoltaic (PV) system.
Hence all work on the system must be carried out only by suitably qualified and authorized
personnel. Carefully read through this guide in detail and make sure that you completely
understand all information described before installing, operating or servicing the PV system, and
store these instructions in an accessible place. Failure to follow the safety instructions may result
in personal injury and damage to property. Renusol reserves the right to make changes to the
product, specifications or installation manual without prior notice.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warning: Danger of Electrocution! Solar modules generate electricity when exposed to sun or
other light sources and constitute a danger of electric shock or burn. An individual PV
module generates a voltage typically less than 50VDC, the voltage increases up to 600VDC
once multiple modules are connected in series. A DC voltage of 30V or more is potentially
hazardous. If multiple modules are connected in parallel then the current increases.
Although the fully insulated plug contacts provide protection against accidental contact,
the following points should be observed when handling solar modules in order to avoid
the risk of fire, sparking and especially a fatal electric shock.
Do not insert electrically conductive parts into any plugs or sockets!
Do not touch the end of the interconnect cables with bare hands when the module is
illuminated
Do not wear metallic jewelry, necklaces, etc. while carrying out mechanical and electrical
installation work
Always use insulated tools, keep moisture away from tools and the working environment
Avoid working in rain, snow or excessive wind conditions
Never leave a module unsupported or unsecured. Always have two persons lifting or
transporting PV modules
Do not dismantle PV modules. Never remove parts or labels fitted by the manufacturer. Do
not use or install broken modules
Always wear protective gloves, head gear, eye goggles and safety shoes
Provide adequate fall protection for yourself and other workers on roof
Ensure the PV modules output cables / connections are in good condition
Do not drop or subject PV modules to shocks e.g. on hard floors
Keep children and unauthorized persons away from work areas
Do not place tools on the PV module or use modules as a work surface
Avoid tool impact or scratching the PV module back sheet, may damage cells
Do not bend the PV modules, twist the frame or stand on modules
Note down individual PV module serial numbers for system warranty purposes
Pay attention to the warning notices on product packaging

VS COMPONENT OVERVIEW
The Renusol VS mounting system provides a simple, fast and cost effective flush mounting
solution for PV modules on pitched roofs.
Top Clamps are universal for module frame thicknesses ranging from 30-50mm. Inventory
and project planning are simplified with just one End Clamp and one Mid Clamp part
number. Clamps snap simply into place anywhere along VS rail.
Installation time is reduced with fastener-free splice connectors and pre-assembled

hardware with Top clamps and L-feet.
Installation confidence is improved with module anti-slip hardware and T bolt-alignment

indicators on L-feet attachments.
Strength and long-life are assured with stainless steel hardware and 6000 series structural
aluminum alloy rails and clamps. All aluminum parts are mill finish.
Costs are reduced and rail attachment spans are increased with a high strength-to-weight
ratio rail design
4
VS Rails & L-Feet - VS rails can span up to 12 feet (see VS rail span tables pages 18-32). VS rail
standard lengths are 123 (3 modules),163.5 (4 modules), 202 (5 modules), 242 (6 modules),
282.5 (7 modules). Serrated rail and L-feet allows pre-positioning/hand-tightening of L-feet bolt
prior to using a wrench. L-feet are assembled with M8 T-bolt and flange nut. Simply insert L-Foot
where is it needed along the rail and tighten. T-bolt direction slot indicates head position.
VS Top Clamps -Innovative universal, proprietary design - one size fits all clamps for PV module
thicknesses ranging between 30-50 mm. Top clamps include 8mm round head stainless steel
screw. Top clamps are easily positioned onto VS rails by clicking into place along the rails top
surface. Mid Clamp spaces the modules approx. 0.75 apart, End Clamps require 1.50 minimum
length at end of each rail.
Module Mid-Clamp Assembly
Module End-Clamp Assembly
Splice Connectors - Unique splice connector design compensates for thermal expansion in
rails. The 8 long splice bar requires no fasteners-reducing installation time. Pre-determined rivet
locator in center of splice bar facilitates uniform rail insertion and minimizing errors.

SITE CONDITIONS
Before Installation
Follow local municipality, utility company, OSHA (if required) health and safety standards and
accident prevention regulations during installation. Ensure that the relevant safety instructions
for the installation and operation of the other system components are also followed. Contact
local Comply with all applicable local or national building codes
Installation
The VS mounting system is not to be installed as overhead glazing or as vertical glazing e.g.
on a faade. Ensure the PV module mounting system factors the local loads such as wind or
snow into account. The combined wind and snow loads should not exceed the maximum load
rating of the PV module. Openings are provided on the underside of the PV module frame to
allow accumulated rain water to drain, make sure that these openings are left unobstructed.
Roof Pitch Selection
Recommend using a roof pitch angle between 0 and 45 to horizontal. VS mounting systems
are designed to be installed parallel to roof surface. When PV modules are connected in series
make sure that all modules are installed with the same orientation and roof pitch angle to avoid
system output losses.
Sufficient Ventilation
Ensure sufficient ventilation below a solar array when mounted parallel to roof surface.
Maintaining a clearance from 3 to 6 below the solar modules will reduce additional heating of
the modules, which results in power loss.
Ensure Comprehensive Fire Protection
The installation of roof-mounted systems can affect a buildings fire safety in some cases.
Poorly executed installations in particular may result in a hazard in the event of a fire.
Therefore, please make sure the assembly is mounted over a fire resistant roof covering rated
for the application. Refer to your local authority for guidelines and requirements for building or
structural fire safety.
Environmental Conditions
Ensure installation site is not exposed to artificially concentrated sunlight or submerged in
water or continually exposed to splashes. If the module is exposed to high concentrations of
salt or sulphur-laden air there is a risk of long term corrosion. Make absolutely sure that the
module is not subject to any unusual chemical exposure.
Suitable Locations
Even slight shading causes a reduced yield from the system. Hence it is particularly important
that the modules be installed in a location with the least possible shading. There should not be
any shading of the entire surface at any time of the year and the module should be exposed to
several hours of unobstructed sunlight even during the winter months when the sun is lowest in
the sky.

VS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (cont.)
IDENTIFY ROOF TYPE

Residential building roofs are primarily constructed of three types of coverings;
Composition (Asphalt) Shingles

Curved or Flat Slate (Concrete) tile
Shake (Wood) Shingles
The roof covering will dictate the appropriate type of flashing to be incorporated.
Installations on composition roof surfaces with flashed components offer the quickest
solution. Concrete tile or shake roofs, or thicker roofs that exceed a typical 1/8-inch
thickness should use taller - female threaded standoffs with approved flashings.

IDENTIFY ROOF TYPE (Cont)
Curved Tile Standoff & Flashing
Flat Tile Standoff & Flashing
Confirm roof rafter size, material, and span to verify that the roof structure is
sound and capable of supporting the additional load of the PV array within local
climatic conditions (wind/snow loads)
Measure roof surfaces and develop accurate drawing locating any obstacles such
as chimneys, parapets, skylights or roof vents. Look for signs of weak or lowlaying roof surfaces which may need repair or additional leveling adjustment of
racking
Confirm roof construction, type, and condition is suitable to last 25 years
Identify any roof access areas, required municipal set-back distances or keep-out
areas as required by the local jurisdiction
ROOF ATTACHMENTS
If separate standoff and flashing combinations are considered, follow the instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the standoffs and flashings before installing. Renusol VS
mounting system includes the L-feet. There are many providers of approved attachments
which adapt well with the VS L-feet provided. Below are a Few Examples of roof

ATTACHMENT LOCATIONS
Stress on the VS Rail is proportional to the loading and the length of the rail between
supports. In this assembly instruction design guide, there are two key dimensions for the
VS rail. Span is the center-to-center distance between VS rail supports (L-feet).
Cantilever is the distance from the outermost L-foot support to the end of the rail.
Cantilever should not exceed 25% of the rated rail span.
VS Rails May Be Placed Parallel or Perpendicular To Rafters.

The preferred method is modules in Portrait, VS rails perpendicular to rafters, insuring
more uniform point loading on rafters and ability to closely space adjacent rows of panels.
13
ATTACHMENT LOCATIONS (Cont)
The minimum required length of the VS Rail is equal to:

The width of the total number of PV modules (side by side)
Plus 0.8 inches for each space between modules (for Mid Clamp)
Plus 3 inches (1-1/4 inches for each pair of End Clamps)
14
EQUIPMENT GROUNDING
Per NEC 2008 art. 690.43, exposed non-current carrying metal parts of PV module
frames, equipment, and conductor enclosures shall be grounded in accordance with art.
250.134 or 250.136A, regardless of voltage. An equipment grounding conductor between
PV array and other equipment shall be required in accordance with art. 250.110.
Devices identified and listed for bonding the metallic frames of PV modules shall be
permitted to bond the exposed metallic frames of PV modules to the metallic frames of
adjacent PV modules. Follow the specific PV module manufacturers installation
instructions for their approved (UL1703) PV module ground devices.

VS RAIL SPAN TABLES
To determine the appropriate VS Rail

Span Table, three factors must be
considered;
1. Roof Zones
2. Design Wind Load
3. Design Snow Load
1. Determine Roof Zone, a (ft),

according to the width and height of the
building for the PV system installation.
The design wind load will vary based on
where the installation is located on a
roof. PV arrays may be located in more
than one roof zone.
Note:
Length a (ft) = 10 percent of the least horizontal dimension or 0.4h, whichever is

smaller, but not less than either 4% of the least horizontal dimension or 3 ft.
For hip roofs with 25, Zone 3 shall be treated as Zone 2.
: Angle of plane of roof from horizontal, in degrees.
Mean roof height, in feet except that eave height shall be used for roof angles <10.
The building is enclosed not an open or partially enclosed structure.
The building is a regular-shaped building or structure, having no unusual geometrical irregularity in spatial form such
as a geodesic dome.
The building does not have response characteristics making it subject to cross wind loading, vortex shedding, instability
due to galloping or flutter; and does not have a site location for which channeling effects or buffeting in the wake of
upwind obstructions warrant special consideration like a narrow canyon or steep cliff.

US Wind Speed Map Category C Exposure
Values are nominal design 3-second gust wind speeds at 33 feet above ground for Exposure Category C (See
Appendix D for detailed US map locations).
3. Obtain the Ground Snow Load for your area from your local building official, or refer to Appendix D for snow
load maps. Refer to ASCE 7-05 Sections 7.3 and 7.4 to determine Roof Snow Load.
