SOLAR PANEL MOUNTING CONFIGURATION
20220381275 · 2022-12-01 ·

Mounting clamps may be utilized to quickly and easily secure solar panel modules relative to mounting rails, which may in turn be secured relative to a mounting surface (e.g., a roof). The mounting clamps may be configured to quickly secure the solar pane modules relative to the mounting rails by tightening a tightening element to pull a clamp element toward the surface of a mounting rail, thereby clamping a portion (e.g., a frame) of a solar panel module between the clamping element and an outer surface of the mounting rail.

Cable tray support

A cable tray support includes first and second rod openings each extending through one of first and second sides of a support body to allow first and second support rods to laterally enter the respective first and second openings. First and second lateral closure members are adjacent the respective first and second openings and are movable to closed positions to inhibit the respective first and second support rods, when received in the corresponding opening, from laterally exiting the corresponding opening.

A collection of components for a cable tray system provide the components and basic hardware for assembling and installing a cable tray that can change direction in three dimensions to avoid obstacles or other cables' trays while negotiating a designated space. Components of the cable tray system may be modular, that is, pre-configured for ease of assembly, such as vertical kits and horizontal bend kits, while others are supplied in lengths for cutting them to fit jobsite requirements, such as rails and rungs. Both components provide an inherent framework that facilitates conceptualization and construction of a cable tray system at the jobsite with flexibility and simplicity to allow the present cable tray system to be employed more efficiently and accurately.
