3.Using a level, place the mounting bracket against the wall surface at least 110 cm (43 inches) from the ground. See Table 2-2 on page 2–18 to ensure minimum clearance requirements are met.

4.Mark the location for mounting screws if using a wall stud for support. At least four mounting screws and anchors are needed for concrete installations or wallboard installations where no wall studs are available for support.

For multiple inverters mounted in parallel, the brackets should be mounted 30 cm (12 inches) apart. Inverters mounted less than 30 cm (12 inches) apart may not achieve full rated power.

5.Remove the bracket and drill the holes using an appropriately sized drill bit. Drill appropriately sized holes for screws or anchors.

6.Secure the bracket to the supporting surface using at least two screws and washers.
