My ground solar system, soon to be updated.
I never did get to wire this into the house, as I relaised the expense of running 12v cable at less than 3% voltage drop was gonna cost me an eye tooth or two.
So been sitting there doing nothing.
Not cyclone rated or approved by a government sponsored company, but way stronger than any of the government approved crud out there.
Posts go 70cm into the ground.
I will be raising an end so the panels face north at 20degree angle.
I live at 25degrees.
Enough of an angle to reduce hail damage (lol) and enought to catch a good average of Winter rays while still performing in Summer.
Going to have to widen it, as the panels I have just bought are 60 cells
Will have to cap the dug channel ready for conduit with 10cm thick slabs of concrete as can't dig through solid basalt with a pick-axe.
