Commercial inverter racking solution  

SMA has released the second generation of its ReadyRack all-in-one inverter, rack, and disconnect solution for commercial rooftop PV. Specifically designed for the three-phase inverter, the Sunny Tripower TL-US, the new ReadyRack allows for simpler, faster system installation while offering durability and code compliance right out of the box.   The ReadyRack is a fully integrated, preassembled, and prewired roof-mount rack that includes all balance-of-system components for reduced wiring time and labor onsite, saving an average of two hours of assembly time per inverter. This turnkey solution includes a Sunny Tripower TL-US inverter; SMA Connection Unit (an eight-string combiner with disconnect); AC disconnect switch; and complete ground bonding of all components. Also included are pre-installed EPDM foot pads for direct placement on the roof with no additional piers or blocks needed, further speeding installation. The ReadyRack's main structure is made in the U.S.A. of corrosion-resistant aluminum and features stainless-steel mounting hardware. Designed for mounting within 10 feet of the PV array, the ReadyRack complies with the 2014 NEC 690.12 rapid shutdown requirements while the integrated DC AFCI within the Sunny Tripower ensures optimal safety with fewer false-positive trips.
