SolarBridge Optimizes Solar Installations with Rail-Free Zep Compatible Solution
Print 
PDFAustin, Texas (July 8, 2013) SolarBridge Technologies (SolarBridge), a leading provider of photovoltaic microinverter solutions, announces the immediate availability of Pantheon II microinverters that are compatible with Zep Solar’s rail-free installation platform. Zep CompatibleTM module manufacturers can now integrate SolarBridge microinverters for a TRUEACTM module solution that installs faster and easier, with an aesthetically pleasing low profile adaptable to any roof structure.
SolarBridge is the first and only microinverter company to offer this double-level of TRUEAC integration – first with factory installation of the microinverter onto leading solar modules, and now with the industry-leading Zep Solar installation solution. ET Solar is the first SolarBridge partner to offer a TRUEAC Zep Compatible module.
Zep Compatible TRUEAC modules powered by SolarBridge drastically reduce installation time and lifetime costs, eliminating the need for installing separate inverters, AC cabling and copper ground wires. While other microinverters and DC optimizers are Zep Compatible, TRUEAC modules installed with Zep Solar’s installation system have the added benefit of eliminating the need for installing a separate grounding electrode conductor (GEC), saving significant installation and material costs. And since an equipment grounding conductor (EGC) is connected automatically as modules are plugged together, Zep Compatible TRUEAC module arrays require no additional labor to meet all electrical code grounding requirements.
“Installing solar is easier than ever before because of SolarBridge’s Zep Compatibile solution,” said Bill Mulligan, president and CEO of SolarBridge. “The combination of SolarBridge and Zep Solar provides installers the speed, performance, reliability and safety needed for truly standout customer service in the field.”
“Module manufacturers who integrate SolarBridge microinverters into Zep Compatible PV modules are leading the industry to a whole new level of installation ease and improved system uptime and performance,” said Mike Miskovsky, CEO of Zep Solar. “SolarBridge’s compatibility with Zep Solar’s installation platform provides module manufacturers a path to offer a more streamlined and cost-effective solution.”
SolarBridge continues to expand its solution offerings to better serve its customer base. Visit SolarBridge at Intersolar North America, July 9-11 in San Francisco at the Moscone Center, Level 2, Booth #8333 to see their latest solutions.
