    Ask if your structure is designed to withstand wind speeds of at least 150 kmph, especially in high-risk areas like North India.

    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?

    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.

Why is the quality of solar structure so important?

    The structure holds your entire solar system together. Poor-quality mounting structures can collapse in high winds or storms, risking lives and damaging property—even if your solar panels and inverters are top-grade.

    Most inverter makers allow real-time monitoring of rooftop solar performance through their authorised mobile app. For this the inverter needs to be connected either with a wifi or through a GSM system. This empowers the users to track every day generation, monthly and yearly generation, average savings, carbon dioxide emissions reduced among others. This also alerts the users in case any malfunction is reported on the system through the mobile even if the person is not there near the project site.

    Keep the solar inverters under shade. Also make enough space on the four sides of the inverter to prevent heat accumulation.

    It is recommended to use soft water to clean your solar panels to avoid any damage. Avoid using tap water if the TDS is higher.
