Not sure where they are building these but I’ll tell you hwhat, fire ants love electronics and they are found in the majority of this state. Putting these right on the ground is just inviting destruction by critters.
- djcannabiz 4y agothats really interesting, thanks for sharing! a google search for fire ants electrical equipment brings up a website on ants conducting electricity and shorting circuits. I had no idea that was an issue
- randyrand 4y agoSolar inverters are always water proof, sealed, and potted. The ants will have their work cut out for them.
- chillingeffect 4y agoan install is expected to last 10-25+ years... that's a long time....
- dreamcompiler 4y agoCan't tell from their website but I really hope they're not using per-panel "solar inverters" at all. The whole ground-touching array should be DC with no electronics whatsoever (except maybe for diodes, and with no significant shadows they might not even need those). Any inverters present should be large, few, and in their own weatherproof housings above the ground. I think per-panel inverters are a stupid idea, especially for large utility-scale installations. Sorry if I misinterpreted your comment and you meant something else.
