March 17, 20224 yr Hi, I have my own small DIY solar setup. I just wanted to find out what is the best way to ground my solar panels. What is the best way to connect to earth wire to the panels Any help is greatly appreciated.
April 18, 20224 yr I used 6mm² earth cable, linked all panels to each other with bolts, with star washers between lug and panel frame. I connected all the panels together and then to the roof. From there down to the ground to a 1,8m earth pin with a 16mm² cable. Try to put your earth pin in a spot where the ground is always damp like close to a gutter down pipe in the shade.
