Ironridge services are intentionally focused. We do not stretch into broad consulting when the need is a clean mounting path, verified component list, and practical documentation package. EPC teams, distributors, installers, and commercial owners come to us when they already know the project objective but need a dependable bridge between module selection, roof or ground conditions, procurement timing, and inspection expectations. Our support desk reviews basic site inputs, module dimensions, array size, environmental assumptions, and preferred installation sequence, then returns a concise recommendation that purchasing and field teams can actually use.
We convert project sketches, module counts, and site constraints into a structured bill of materials review. The result is a clear parts direction for rails, clamps, attachments, grounding accessories, and module-related hardware.
Field teams receive compact notes covering clamp zones, rail splices, torque references, bonding paths, and roof or ground interface details. The format is written for crews that need to move fast without losing traceability.
Ironridge helps buyers separate essential mounting components from nice-to-have accessories, then aligns the quote discussion with lead time, packaging, regional availability, and phased shipment requirements.
When module frames, roof systems, or local code assumptions create uncertainty, we provide a focused review path so the project team can decide before equipment arrives at the site.
Large renewable projects can stall on small component questions. Ironridge keeps service metrics tied to the handoffs that matter most.
Share module model, project capacity, roof or ground condition, target installation date, and any code or wind assumptions already known. We will shape the reply around mounting compatibility and procurement readiness.
Start a Service RequestMounting hardware decisions live at the intersection of structural engineering, PV module mechanics, and electrical bonding code. We anchor every BOM recommendation to the specific test methods and ratings the inspector or owner engineer will look for.
Site-specific wind speed, exposure category, snow load, and seismic class are required inputs. We document load assumptions per ASCE 7-16 / ASCE 7-22 so structural calcs are auditable for permitting.
Mid-clamps, end-clamps, and rail splices are listed to UL 2703 for bonding the PV module frames into the equipment grounding conductor without separate grounding lugs. We list compatible module manufacturers explicitly.
PV modules certified to IEC 61215 are tested at ±2400 Pa or ±5400 Pa front and rear loads. Our clamp zones and rail spans are specified to keep installed module loads within the certified envelope.
Single-axis trackers operate ±60° from horizontal with night and high-wind stow positions. We document slew motor torque, backtrack algorithm parameters, and IEC 62817 tracker reliability test compliance.
Equipment grounding conductor sizing, exposed metal bonding, and PV array DC grounding follow NEC 690 Article 45 and 47. Rail-integrated bonding paths are documented per UL 2703 for inspector review.
Roof-membrane warranty interaction, ballast-only installations on low-slope roofs, and seismic D/E zone bracing are not universally certified. We flag these as project-specific engineering reviews rather than catalog-spec answers.
