    Choose a nationally registered or certified company. Ask about their design standards, safety protocols, post-installation audits, and structure warranty.

    Civil codes determine safe structural loads and wind resistance. Your system should be designed using local wind speed data and civil norms to ensure safety and durability.

    Get pre-monsoon inspections done every year. These should include checking: Mounting bolts for looseness Waterproofing around roof penetrations Electrical connections for corrosion Proper drainage and grounding

    Look for cyclone-proof, non-welded structures made from hot-dip galvanized or marine-grade aluminum. Nut-and-bolt designs are safer, more durable, and easier to maintain than welded ones.

Do mounting structures have the same safety standards as solar panels and inverters?

  • Solar Faqs Team

    Team of Solar Faqs | Answer on July 1, 2025 at 6:28 pm

    No. While panels and inverters must meet strict certification standards, mounting structures currently lack comprehensive mandatory norms or certifications in India.
