Solar Product Portfolio
Racking, Mounting & Framing
Atkore provides industry leading durability
and time-saving flexibility with prefabricated
assembly or off the shelf components for your
ground, roof top, and also for
canopy/carport applications.
PV Solar Shelter
Offering a premium range of products designed to
help protect PV equipment as well as route and
connect PV wires and cables from PV panels
through to inverters, controllers, and batteries
to the collection grid.
Pre-fabricated Solutions
On projects where multiple repeating specifications
are required, Atkore can offer pre-fabricated
solutions. Product is supplied complete, ensuring
each order arrives with the exact number of
components and accessories.
Panel / Array
A solar panel array is a string of solar panels connected in series. The solar panels are usually connected with solar cable and MC4 connectors. The maximum number of solar panels per string depends on the actual input voltage of the solar inverter.
Mounting Structure
Photovoltaic mounting systems (also called solar module racking) are used to fix solar panels on surfaces like roofs, building facades, or the ground. These mounting systems generally enable retrofitting of solar panels on roofs or as part of the structure of the building (called BIPV).
Racking System
Solar racking systems are used to safely fix solar panels to various surfaces such as roofs, building facades, or the ground. The system is designed to easily be retrofitted to existing rooftops and structures
Inverter
The inverter converts the direct current (DC) electricity generated by the solar panel to alternating current (AC) electricity, in order to be used by the electrical grid.
Substation
Substations are fenced facility owned and operated by utilities. They convert high voltages to low voltages, or vice versa. Substations are necessary because of differences in voltages
Battery Energy Storage--
Battery energy storages reserve energy for later consumption and is charged by a connected solar system. The stored electricity is consumed after sundown, during energy demand peaks, or during a power outage.
Rooftop
Rooftop solar power systems, or rooftop PV systems, are photovoltaic systems that have electricity-generating solar panels mount on the rooftop of a residential, or commercial building or structure.
Carports / Canopy
Solar canopies are custom-built outdoor structures designed to hold an overhanding solar array. They allow for distributed solar energy generation, i.e. the production of solar electricity on-site.
