Solar Tracker Build Notes.

The Printers during publishing may slightly alter the technical drawings scales.

All drawings in this 2nd edition are from the first edition book (2011, 250w panels). However, today in 2022 PV panels have become more efficient for their size, hence the 2nd edition shows higher final outputs with 400w panels.

I recommend that you obtain your 8off PV panels first before starting to build your PV panel frames.

IMPORTANT......... PLEASE ensure that you have the 4off, 4.2m long by 50mm x 30mm steel box section, sufficiently long enough for your Panels.  For Trina 400w panels these 4off 4.2m long will need to be 4.65m long and not 4.2m.
