Description
Products covered in this report are grounding clamp and spacers.Grounding clamps and spacers are used to bond PV panels to the racking system that they are mounted on. Grounding clamps are used between one module frame to another module frame.
Bonding clips are used between rail of racking system and frame of PV module.
Grounding clamps achieve bonding through side teeth that penetrate anodized coating of aluminum frame.Grounding clips achieve bonding between the PV panel frame and the mounting rack by using multiple serrated metal punch outs that pierce that anodized coating on the panel frame. The serrated punch outs are on both sides of the product which comes into contact with the panel frame and rail to ensure continuity. Bonding straps achieve bonding through usage of hardware (including washers, nuts, and bolts).
Final installation must be in accordance to NFPA NEC 70 and applicable local jurisdictionBonding straps are used between separate rails to ensure continuity of bonding connection. Mid clamp, Ground clamp, Spacer

10.1 Evaluation of Unlisted Components
Note to Intertek Follow Up Inspector: The Component Evaluation Center, CEC, will notify you in writing when these components must be selected and sent to the CEC for re-evaluation
Ship the samples to:Intertek Testing Services NA Inc.ETL Component Evaluation Center45000 Helm Street, Suite 150Plymouth Twp., MI 48170 USAAttn: Component Evaluation CenterSample Disposition: Due to the destructive nature of the testing, all samples will be discarded at the conclusion of testing unless, the manufacturer specifically requests the return of the samples. The request for return must accompany the initial component shipment.�
Because Unlisted Components are uncontrolled, and they do not fall under a third party follow up program, Intertek may require these components to be tested and/or evaluated at least once annually, more often for certain components, as part of the independent certification process. The Unlisted Components in Section 5.0 require testing and/or evaluation as indicated.
