Abstract
An aluminum wire positioning device system for solar panel cabling and harness string cabling is provided that includes a support structure, a cable, and a wire positioning device. The wire positioning device includes a center leg, an attachment support leg, an attachment member configured to couple the wire positioning device to the solar panel frame or solar panel support structure at an attachment point, a saddle support leg, and a cable support saddle configured to support the at least one cable. The attachment member is arranged at an angle relative to the cable support saddle about the center leg, and a center-of-gravity of the wire positioning device is aligned with the attachment point, the center leg, and the saddle support leg.
Claims20
A wire positioning device system, comprising:
- a support structure;
- at least one cable;
- and
- a wire positioning device, comprising:
- a center leg having a distal end and a proximal end;
- an attachment support leg arranged on the proximal end of the center leg;
- an attachment member arranged on the attachment support leg opposite the center leg, and configured to couple the wire positioning device to the support structure at an attachment point;
- a saddle support leg arranged on the distal end of the center leg;
- and
- a cable support saddle coupled to the saddle support leg opposite the center leg, and configured to support the at least one cable,
- wherein the attachment member is arranged at an angle relative to the cable support saddle about the center leg, and a center-of-gravity of the wire positioning device is aligned with the attachment point, a portion of the center leg, and the saddle support leg.
A wire positioning device system, comprising:
- a first support structure;
- a second support structure arranged offset from the first support structure such that a gap is arranged therebetween;
- at least one cable arranged within the gap;
- and
- a wire positioning device, comprising:
- a first attachment support leg having a proximal end and a distal end;
- a first attachment member arranged on the distal end of the first attachment support leg, and configured to couple the wire positioning device to the first support structure;
- a second attachment support leg having a proximal end and a distal end;
- and
- a second attachment member arranged on the distal end of the second attachment support leg, and configured to couple the wire positioning device to the second support structure;
- wherein the first attachment support leg is coupled to the second attachment support leg at each distal end, the first attachment support leg coupled to the second attachment support leg form a cable support saddle configured to support the at least one cable,
- wherein the cable support saddle extends across the gap from the first support structure to the second support structure.
