When mounting a panel using Z-Brackets, a well-nut (also known as
“expansion nut”) is often used on a pre-drilled hole. This procedure
safely secures the panel on thin cabin roofs or RV roofs. Using a
well-nut is recommended, as the rubber expansion prevents water leak-
age. (The Z-Bracket set does not include well nuts)
Step1: Attach the Z-brackets to the panels
Attach the Z-Bracket to the solar panel by the pre-drilled mounting holes
on the back of the solar panel. Solar Panels have two mounting holes
on each side.
Step2: Mark and drill holes
With the Z-Brackets attached to the frame, the panel can be laid on a
mounting surface, making it easier to mark the holes for the well-nut.
