8.4 Kw Timber Framed Solar System Part 1 The Frame

When I first moved to this bit of land quite a few years ago now I started with two solar panels. since then I have slowly added more as I have found them cheap for sale locally. I now have 8 second hand mismatched panels that have served me well for years but it is time for an upgrade. The original design and size came about due to there being a good deal on second hand panels going. So I purchased a pallet of 30 panels, designed the frame and got to work. Unfortunately the panel never showed up and there is no sign that they will so I got my money back and had to buy new ones that would fit the rack. The system was going to be 6kw but now due to the newer panels in is 8.4 kw. But it has cost 3x as much as I originally planned. In the next video I will be mounting the panels and doing the wiring.
