White Paper: Solar Wire Management for Single Axis Trackers

HellermannTyton's Wire Management

June 28, 2020

HellermannTyton’s Wire Management for Single Axis Trackers white paper has been updated to include extensive commentary on bifacial modules as well as modules with split J boxes. The publication provides industry insights and guidance on best practices for installers, site owners and MROs.

“As the utility scale solar market evolves, so do wire management strategies,” said HellermannTyton Product Marketing Manager Nick Korth. “This addendum builds on a document many of our customers have found useful.”

While managing wire and cable on a single-axis tracker system is relatively straight forward, this wire management guide will help designers and installers avoid some common pitfalls of utility scale wire management. Many of the recommendations in this guide are general best practices for all solar installations, while others are specific to single-axis trackers.

In addition to the added chapter, the white paper covers:

• End-of-row wire management and why a long-term plan is critical for this area.

• Choosing the correct material to match the hazard and environment of a solar site.

• Wire management options along the modules, torque tube and module interface brackets.

According to Korth, “HellermannTyton evolves alongside the market. We drive innovation through our product development process and through knowledge leadership like this white paper as well as industry events, webinars and other unique publications.”
