The easiest and most cost-effective way to fulfill NEC 2014 and 2017 requirements in commercial rooftop applications is to mount the inverter next to the solar array. Luckily, the Fronius Symo inverters allow for mounting in any angle - from vertical to completely flat, making installation next to the array even easier. To ensure highest inverter performance, Fronius offers a light-weight and easy to install shade cover as part of the Fronius Rooftop Solution - keeping the inverter’s temperature low and performance high. Due to the increased energy production, the shade cover pays for itself. The Fronius Shade Cover can also be retrofitted to existing installations.
