Abstract
Systems and methods for using high-impact fasteners to couple components of a solar power system together to prevent these components from any movement or slippage relative to each other. A strap may be secured over a top surface of the high-impact fasteners and around the components to prevent a disengagement of the high-impact fastener from the components and a separation of the components.
Claims20
A method of assembling a solar power system, the method comprising:
- positioning a first component of the solar power system proximate to a second component of the solar power system;
- and
- driving a high-impact fastener through a portion of the first component and through a portion of the second component using an actuated fastener device to prevent slippage between the first and second components.
A solar power system comprising:
- a first component;
- a second component;
- and
- a high-impact fastener extending through a portion of the first component and through a portion of the second component to prevent slippage between the first and second components.
