Today some progress was made, well for the future. There happens to be some area available for extra 3.5 kw of solar panel. The conduit was still open from pulling in 3 pairs for the three strings. What's one to do, Yes. pulled in another pair for the future 4th string of panels, so we would be sporting a total of 14.5 kws of solar. Maybe in the spring.??

The forecast for tonight is 15 cm of the white stuff. Just finished tightening the terminals for all the solar panel strings and the wind had intensified and sleet had begun.

Yesterday two ground rods had been driven in because that stainless pergola would be a fabulous lightning rod as well as all the panels on the roof LETS get those grounded as well.

Some progress has also been made on the 20 kw inverter but I will leave that for another post with some photos.
