Hi Godoh,
Putting the panels on the ground won't work for me as for the right location it's close to 50 metres away and I aint trenching thru solid rock to bury the cables.
I picked up that 1.9Kw array today and luckily I was able to reverse my ute into the guy's shed as it was bucketing down today. The panel mounts have all the clamps too so that's a bit relief and I'm thinking of mounting them on the eastern side so they get the morning sun and the 1.5Kw array can go on the western side of the roof.
Now as I will be putting the panels 2 in series to raise the voltage for the Outback FM60 rather than have a heap of wire just making some sealed box's and use the panel mount solar connectors as used on the grid tie inverters. Then connecting each box with some conduit for the output wiring so everything is weather sealed.
This week I'll go talk with some local solar companies and see if I can get a quote to install the panels or just buy all the parts I need off them and do it myself.
Cheers Bryan
