Introducing SOLARLOK Grounding Bolt These bolts are designed for solar module grounding applications using solid copper uninsulated 6 AWG to 12 AWG wire, or stranded copper uninsulated 6 AWG to 10 AWG (7 or 19 strands) wire. The grounding assembly consists of a wire bolt (wire slot on one end and threaded post on the other), wire binding hex nut, and mounting lock washer nut. The grounding assembly is used with metal–framed photovoltaic (solar) panels and related products that require grounding for safety reasons. SOLARLOK APPLICATIONS Grounding Bolt Solar panels and related photovoltaic products require grounding per the National Electric Code (NEC Article 690.34). These applications include, but are not limited to electrical grounding of solar modules and solar roof tiles.
