Do not attempt • o to repair any part of the module. • Installation should be performed only by authorized personnel. • Remove all metallic jewelry prior to installing this product to reduce the chance of accidental exposure to live circuits. 1.0 Introduction This manual provides safety and installation instructions for UL - listed SunPower photovoltaic (PV) modules (including the new SunPower E/X series and NE modules) carrying the UL logo on the product label (Figure 1). crus " Fi ure 1 Important-! Please read this instruction manual in its entirety before installing, wiring or using this product in any way. Failure to comply with these instructions will invalidate the SunPower Limited Warranty for PV Modules. 1 1.1 Disclaimer of Liability The installation techniques, handling and use of this product are beyond company control. Therefore,' SunPower does not assume responsibility for loss, damage or expense resulting from improper installation, handling or use. 1 - 1.2 Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Listing Information . This product meets or exceeds the requirements set forth by UL1703 and ULC/ORD-C1703-01 for PV Modules. These Standards cover flat -plate PV modules and panels intended for installation on buildings or those intended to be freestanding. To satisfy, the listing for this product the modules must be mounted with a rack or standoff structure. The UL listing does not include integration into a building surface because additional requirements may apply. This product is not intended for use where artificially concentrated sunlight is applied to the module. 1.3 Limited Warranty Module limited warranties are described in full in the SunPower warranty certificates obtainable at www.sunpowercorp.com. In summary, the Limited Warranties do not apply to any of the following; PV modules which in SunPower's absolute judgment have been subjected to: misuse, abuse, neglect or accident; alteration, improper installation, application or removal. Including, but not limited to installation, application or removal by any party other than a SunPower authorized dealer; non -observance of SunPower's installation, users and/or maintenance instructions; repair or modifications by someone other than an approved service technician of SunPower; power failure surges, lightning, flood, fire, accidental breakage or other events outside SunPower's control. 2.0 Safety Precautions, Before installing this device, read all safety instructions in this document. Danger! Module interconnection cables pass direct current (DC) and are sources of voltage when the module is under load and when it is exposed to light. Direct current can arc across gaps and may cause injury or death if improper connection or disconnection is made, or if contact is made with module leads that are frayed or tom. Do not connect or disconnect modules when current from the modules or an external source is present. • Cover all modules in the PV array with an opaque cloth or material before making or breaking electrical connections. • If local codes require, insure that PV connectors have a locking feature in order to defend against untrained personnel disconnecting the modules once they have been installed. • All installations must be performed in compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and any applicable local codes. • Use insulated tools to reduce your risk of electric shock. • Do not stand on, drop, scratch, or allow objects to fall on modules. • If the front glass is broken, or the back sheet is tom, contact with any module surface or module frame can cause electric shock. • Broken j -boxes and/or broken connectors are electrical hazards as well as laceration hazards. The dealer or installers should remove the module from the array and contact the supplier for disposal instructions. Do not install or handle the modules when they are wet or during periods of high wind. • Contact your module supplier if maintenance is necessary. • Suggested cable minimum bend -radius. We advise a conservative bend of equal to or greater than a 40mm (1.51 radius or 80mm (31 diameter for the smallest module cable bend -radius. • Save these instructions! 3.0 Electrical Characteristics The module electrical ratings are within 10% of UL's measured values under Standard Test Conditions (STC) of 1 kW/m' irradiance with Air Mass of 1.5 solar -spectral -irradiance -distribution and a cell temperature of 25° C. The electrical characteristics of SunPower modules are listed in Figure 2 of the appendix. If an installation involves a SunPower module which does not appear on this list please consult the product label on the back of the module or visit www.Sunpowercorp.com for the product datasheet. Bypass diodes for each module are rated and factory installed in the modules. The component diodes are not considered user replaceable in the field once installed. The diode configuration for 96 cell modules is 2 diodes for 2 strings of 24 cells in series, plus one diode for a single string of 48 cells in series. For 128 cell modules, the configuration is 2 diodes installed for 2 strings of 32 cell in series, plus one diode for a single string of 64 cells in series. The diodes are one of the following ratings; 1. Schottky type,15A, 45 PIV (Peak Inverse Voltage) for 96 cell modules. 2. Schottky type, 20A, 45 PIV (Peak Inverse Voltage) for 128 cell modules. 3. Schottky type,20A, 100 PIV (Peak Inverse Voltage) for 96 and 128 cell modules. A photovoltaic module may produce more current and/or voltage than, reported at STC. Sunny, cool weather and reflection from snow or water can increase current and power output. Therefore, the values of 1. marked on the module should be multiplied by a factor of 1.25 when determining component ampacity ratings to comply with NEC, Article 690.8(A). An additional 1.25 multiplier may be required by the NEC for sizing fuses and conductors as described in NEC Section 690-8(B). The series fuse must have an interrupting rating that is equal to or greater than the maximum fault current the fuse is required to interrupt, including contributions from all connected sources or energy. The maximum module string open circuit voltage (V,,) shall be calculated as the sum of the rated open -circuit voltage of the series -connected photovoltaic modules corrected for the lowest expected ambient temperature (NEC 2008, Article 690.7). One source for statistically valid, lowest -expected, ambient temperature design data for various locations is the Extreme Annual Mean Minimum Design Dry Bulb Temperature found in the ASHRAE Handbook — Fundamentals. These temperature data can be used to calculate maximum voltage using the manufacturer's temperature coefficients relative to the rating temperature of 25°C (NEC 2011, Article note to 690.7). SunPower recommends the use of open -circuit voltage . temperature coefficients listed in Figure 2 of the appendix, when determining Maximum System Voltage. For modules rated higher than 600V DC System Voltage, refer to NEC Article 100, Part II for appropriate series fuse ratings. 3.1 Fire Rating The module is Class C fire rated. ®March 2013 SunPower Corporation. All rights reserved. Specifications included in this manual are subject to change without notice. 4.0 -Electrical Connections Modules may be connected in series and/or parallel to achieve the desired electrical output as long as certain conditions are met. Please use only the same type of modules in a combined source circuit. SunPower modules ship with locking connectors or safety clip, which once connected requires the use of a tool to disconnect module -to -module connections. This defends against untrained personnel disconnecting the modules when under load (which may cause injury or death as stated in Section 2.0) and complies with the NEC 2008 code for safety with PV connectors. 4.1 Equipment Grounding To reduce the possibility of electrical shock, ground the frame of the module or array before wiring the circuit using a grounding method that meets NEC requirements for grounding solar electrical systems. In order to install in accordance with the UL listing of this product, SunPower modules shall be grounded using grounding hardware that has been certified to meet requirements for grounding systems in UL467, UL1703, or UL1741 on anodized aluminum frames. SunPower recommends using 1 of the following five methods of grounding the module frame. In addition, avoid corrosion due to the use of dissimilar metals (we suggest stainless steel between copper and aluminum). 1) Attach a ground conductor to a grounding lay -in lug mounted at one of the four designated 0.17" grounding holes on the module frame. Alternatively, any unused mounting hole can be used to mount the lug. Use a grounding lug such as Ilsco GBL4DBT, Bumdy CL50-DB- T or Tyco Solklip 1954381-2, and stainless steel hardware (bolt, washers, and nut). A star washer should be used between the grounding lug and the module frame in order to break through the anodizing and establish electrical contact with the aluminum. The assembly must end with a nut and be torqued between 20 inch -pound to 25 inch -pound for a #10-32 bolt. A lock washer or other locking mechanism is needed to maintain tension between the bolt and the assembly. The copper conductor must be attached to the ground lug using the stainless steel set screw provided by the manufacturer. Please refer to NEC Article 690 on grounding PV arrays for specific requirements. 2) SunPower systems may also be grounded through the use of SunPower supplied "IFF clips" which are UL Listed (1703 and 1741). A minimum torque of 10 in -lbs is required for grounding, however higher torque values will be required to ensure structural integrity. General torque values are 35 to 45 in -lbs for a 1/4-20 or M6 bolt, but may be higher in specific applications. When using these clips, the array frame (racking) must be grounded in accordance with NEC Article 250. To ensure system safety and structural integrity, strict adherence to application-specific SunPower documentation is required. 3) The SunPower PV Grounding Clip may also be used only in applications where the modules are attached to a SunPower torque tube, #111380. This device consists of Rail Clip #1505-994, Retainer Bar #1504-979, Carriage Bolt (2) #1506-224, Nut (2) #1503-098, Lock Washer (2) #1503-099. Hardware must be torque to 120 in -lbs. The PV Grounding Clip has been evaluated for bonding to the Torque Tube for use with an over -current protective device rated 20 Amps maximum and a circuit capacity of 600 V, 5000 Amps. 'Note: Methods 4-5 were evaluated to UL 1703 by ETL. As such, the use of these devices is not considered part of the UL Listing of these modules. 4) Sunpower modules may also be grounded through the use of an ETL Listed PV Attach Grounding washer #1508-666, which may be used only in applications where the modules are attached to a Sunpower Saddle #1508-738 or #1508-741 using a 1/4 inch rivet. SUNPOWER CORPORATION Safety and Installation Instructions - Document 001-14158 Rev N must be grounded in accordance with NEC Article 250. To ensure sy3tert safety and structural integrity, strict adherence to application- specific SunPower documentation is required. 4.2 System Grounding • Review the following tables for the proper grounding techniques to use for the installation of your SunPower PV system.

For optimal performance, SunPower PV modules must only be used in configurations as described above. Failure to comply with this requirement will reduce the performance of the system and invalidate SunPower's Limited Power Warranty for PV Modules. For more information on grounding the system correctly, visit our website at www.sunpowercorp.com/inverters or contact SunPower technical support at 1 -877 -SUN -0123. 4.3 Series Connection The modules may be wired in series to produce the desired voltage output. Do not exceed the maximum system voltage shown in Figure 2. 4.4 Parallel Connection The modules may be combined in parallel to produce the desired current output. Each series string or module may be required to be fused prior to combining with other strings. Figure 2 describes the maximum fuse size allowed (number of modules which can be connected in parallel and protected by one fuse). Please refer to the NEC Article 690 for additional fusing requirements. 5.0 Module Mounting The SunPower Limited Warranty for PV Modules is contingent upon modules being mounted in accordance with the requirements described in this section. 5) If the Unirac Solarmount system is used for mounting the modules, grounding is achieved using either the Wiley Electronics WEEB UMC 5.1 Site Considerations or UGC -1 grounding clips in combination with UniRac's Mid or End SunPower modules should be mounted in locations that meet the following clamps and 1/4-20 bolt and flanged nut , torqued to 120 in -lbs. If the requirements: Solarmount-I system is used grounding is achieved with the UniRac UGC -2 grounding clips in combination with UniRac's Mid or End clamps and Sliders with a 1/4-20 bolt and flanged nut torqued to 120 in -lbs. When using methods 2, 3, 4 or 5 the array frame (racking) ®March 2013 SunPower Corporation. All rights reserved. Specifications included in this manual are subject to change without notice. Operatinq Temperature: All SunPower modules must be mounted in environments that ensure SunPower modules will operate within the 9. following maximum and minimum operating temperatures: Maximum Operating Temperature +85 ' Celsius, +185 ' Fahrenheit Minimum Operating Temperature -40' Celsius, -40 ' Fahrenheit Care should be taken to provide adequate ventilation behind the modules, especially in hot environments. Design Strenqth: SunPower modules are designed to meet a maximum positive (or upward, e.g. wind) and negative (or downward, e.g. static load) design pressure of 2400 Pa (Pascals; 245 kg/m2) when mounted in all of the mounting configurations specified in Section 5.2. Design strength of 2400 Pa corresponds approximately to a wind speed of 130 km/h (approximately t800Pa, per IEC reference) with a safety factor of 3 for gusty winds. NOTE: any racking application must have a separate rating per the racking or mounting system utilized by the modulelanay installer. This mounting system must meet or exceed the certification levels of the installation jurisdiction. SunPower modules are also designed to meet a maximum negative (or downward, e.g. snow load) of 5400 Pa (Pascals; 550 kg /M2) only when mounted in adherence to Section 5.2 below. 5400 Pa design strength has been verified by SunPower and TUV. 72 cell modules with dimensions of (1559mm x 798mm) meet 5400 Pa in the following mounting configurations described in Section 5.2 below a. Frame Holes b. Pressure Clamps or Clips c. End Mount 96 cell modules with dimensions of (1559mm x 1046mm) meet 5400 Pa in the following mounting configurations described in Section 5.2 below a. Frame Holes b. Pressure Clamps or Clips 128 cell modules with dimensions of (2067mm x 1046mm) meet 5400 Pa in the following mounting configurations described in Section 5.2 below a. Frame Holes b. Pressure Clamps or Clips When mounting modules in snow prone or high wind environments, special care should be taken to mount the modules in a manner that provides sufficient design strength while meeting local code requirements (mounting system must meet or exceed the certification levels of the installation jurisdiction). Excluded Operating Environments & Reconfigurations Certain operating environments are not recommended for SunPower modules, and are excluded from the SunPower Limited Warranty of these modules. Request the regional dealer to contact SunPower if there are any unanswered questions concerning the operating environment. When the PV modules are not generating power they must remain in the system grounding mode with which they were installed, or in a floating mode. When the modules are not generating power, the process of disconnecting the installation from its commissioned ground or float then connecting an outside voltage source to the modules, will void the module product warranty. 5.2 Mounting Configurations For a non -integral module, the assembly is to be mounted over a fire resistant roof -covering rated for the application. Modules may be mounted at any angle, from horizontal to vertical. Class C fire rating is maintained at all installation slopes. Select the appropriate orientation to maximize sunlight exposure. Specific information on module dimensions and the location of mounting and grounding holes is shown in (Figures 3, 4, and 5). In order to prevent water from entering the junction box, which could present a safety hazard, modules should be oriented with the junction box in the uppermost position and not be mounted such that the front/top glass SUNPOWER CORPORATION., Safety and Installation Instructions - Document 001-14158 Rev N faces downward (e.g., on a tracking structure that positions the modules. with the junction box facing skyward during sleep mode). Clearance between the module frames and structure or ground is required to prevent wiring damage and allows air to circulate behind the module. For 128 cell modules a minimum of 4 inches of clearance is required, for all other modules a minimum of 1.5 inches is required between the module frame and structure or ground. The module is only UL Listed for use when its factory frame is fully intact. Do not remove or alter the module frame. Creating additional mounting holes may damage the module and reduce the strength of the frame. Modules may be mounted using the following methods only: 1) Frame Holes: Secure the module to the structure using the factory mounting hole pairs. Four 1/4" stainless steel bolts, with nuts, washers, and lock washers are recommended per module tightened to a min. torque of 10 in -lbs. Refer to Figures 3, 4 and 5 for the module dimensions and hole locations. This method has been certified by a third -party organization according to UL 1703. 2) Pressure Clamps or Clips: Mount the module with the IFF clips on the side frame of the module. The side frames are attached to the longer sides of the module. The centerline of the clips should be between 6"tol5"from the end of each of the side frames. Installers should ensure the clamps are of sufficient strength to allow for the maximum design pressure of the module. The IFF clip hardware should be tightened to a min. of 10 in -lbs. 3) End Mount: End mounting is the capture mounting of the module's end frame to a supporting rail (The end frames are on the shorter dimensions of the module), using IFF clips tightened to a min. torque of 10 in -lbs. The end -mounting rail and clips or clamps must be of sufficient strength to allow for the maximum design pressure of the module. Verify this capacity with the mounting system vendor before installation. 4) Center Mount PV Grounding clip: A PV Grounding Clip (as Described above in Section 4.1, item 3) may be used to clamp the bottom flange of the frame at the center of the long sides. Minimum clamping length shall be 6" on top of flange and 4" on bottom. The clamps must be of sufficient strength to allow for the maximum design pressure of the module. Verify this capacity with the mounting system vendor before installation. 5) SunPower specified or SunPower supplied mounting systems: Modules mounted with strict adherence to SunPower documentation, using hardware systems supplied by or specified by SunPower. Mounting hardware should not secure the module by applying direct pressure to the front glass, Including frame locations where glass is exposed in "drainage notch" openings. 5.3 Handling of Modules during Installation Do not place modules face -forward in direct contact with abrasive surfaces like roofs, driveways, wooden pallets, railings, stucco walls, etc.... The module front surface glass is sensitive to oils and abrasive surfaces, which may lead to scratches and irregular soiling. Modules that feature antireflective coated glass are prone to visible finger print marks if touched on the front glass surface. SunPower recommends handling modules with anti -reflective glass with gloves or limiting touching of the front surface. Any finger print marks resulting from installation will naturally disappear over time or can be reduced by following the washing guidelines in Section 6.0 below. Product datasheets specify the glass type used by a particular module. 6.0 Maintenance Visually inspect all modules annually for safe electrical connections, sound mechanical connection, and freedom from corrosion. This visual inspection should be performed from ground level, unless performed by trained SunPower dealers or trained SunPower support personnel. Periodic cleaning of modules is recommended, but is not required. Periodic cleaning has resulted in improved performance levels, especially in regions with low levels of annual precipitation (less the 18.25 inches Warch 2013 SunPower Corporation. AO rights reserved. Specifications included in this manual are subject to change without notice. (46.3cm)). Consult your dealer or supplier about recommended cleaning schedules for your area. To clean a module, wash with potable, non -heated, water. Normal water pressure is more than adequate, but pressurized water up to 1500psi may be used. Fingerprints, stains, or accumulations of dirt on the front surface may be removed with standard over-the-counter glass cleaners (e.g. Windex) containing ammonia and or vinegar or with a 3%soap and water solution. If only a few panels: first rinse off area and let soak for a short period of time (5 -minutes). Re -wet and use a soft sponge or seamless cloth to wipe glass surface in a circular motion. If a large system; wet Figure 2: Electrical Characteristics* SUNPOWER CORPORATION Safety and Installation Instructions - Document 001-14158 Rev N panels with cleaning solution, allow soaking and follow with high pressure riKse Wsoft*squeegee (sponge or soft rubber). Fingerprints typically can be removed with a soft cloth or sponge and water after wetting. Do not use harsh industrial strength cleaning materials such as scouring powder, steel wool, scrapers, blades, or other sharp instruments to clean the glass surface of the module. Use of such materials or cleaning without consultation will invalidate the product warranty. • Figures 3, 4, and 5 are on the next page.

JOOO JOOO MODULE -TYPE CLASSICATION -MOUNTING F COVERING CLASS RATING COMPONENTS BUILDING CODE The International Building Code (IBC) 2012 has been adopted in serval states and includes new requirements for the fire classification of solar systems. These requirements are included in Chapter 15 - Roofing. The IBC applies to commercial buildings and in some instances residential buildings. IBC 2012 has been adopted by the State of California and the new requirements for the fire classification of solar systems will be effective January 2015. CERTIFIED STANDARDS UL 1703 and 2703 have been updated to reflect the new requirements in the IBC 2012. The testing requirements include: • Module Typing (types 1 and 2 are the most common; Type 3 and 10 refer to Glass -Glass modules or ThinFilm modules) • Spread of Flame Testing (System = Module + Mounting) • Burning Brand Testing (System = Module + Mounting) WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW 1. Check with your localAHJ to determine the required roof classification of your building. The fire classification of the solar system will need to match or be greater than the roof classification. 2. Check to see what"Type of Module" you are purchasing. 3. Check to see if your mounting system has been tested with this "Type of Module, what fire classification was achieved, and if any additional components or installation requirements are needed. This information should be included in the mounting manufacturer's installation instructions and certification documentation. 4. Provide the mounting manufacturer's installation instructions and certification documentation to your AHJ for approval. SPREAD OF FLAME TEST Flame at southern edge of roof is aimed upthe roof as a fan blows at 12 MPH. The flame can't spread 6 feet or more in 10 mins. BURNING BRAND TEST (Pitched Roof Only) A burning wood block is placed on module as a fan blows at 12 MPH.

INTRODUCTION The SunPower Composition Mounting System's mounting pad is designed primarily for connection of PV modules directly to roof sheathing, without the need for additional backing or blocking. The mounts are to be placed symmetrically from 3" to 12" from the ends of each module along the long sides of the module. This document is intended to provide background, rationale, and calculations supporting the installation requirements presented in the SunPower Composition Mounting System mounting detail of the drawing package. II. SUMMARY The conclusion of these calculations is as follows: 1) In jurisdictions using the International Building Code' (IBC), the SunPower Composition Mounting System may be in without the use of blocking up to 120 mph basic wind speed' in all roof zones (1, 2, and 3)3 and Exposures B or C, except as follows: a. 85 mph basic wind speed or greater, Exposure C, blocking must be installed to support a mount where any portion of a module supported by that mount is in zone 3 and the roof slope is 2:12 — 6:12. b. 100 mph basic wind speed or greater, Exposure B, blocking must be installed to support a mount where any portion of a module supported by that mount is in zone 3 and the roof slope is 2:12 — 6:12. C. 110 mph basic wind speed or greater, Exposure C, blocking must be installed to support a mount where any portion of a module supported by that mount is in zones 2 or 3 and the roof slope is 2:12 — 6:12. d. 120 mph basic wind speed or greater, Exposure B, blocking must be installed to support a mount where any portion of a module supported by that mount is in zones 2 or 3 and the roof slope is 2:12 — 6:12. 2) These calculations apply for use with SunPower photovoltaic modules measuring approximately 32" x 62" and mounted in compliance with Document 001-14158 rev E*. ' The California Building Code (CBC) is considered to be identical to the IBC for the purposes of this document. Z All basic wind speeds are as defined in ASCE 7-05, that is, nominal design 3 second gust at 33 feet, Exposure C. UBC wind speed is determined on a different basis (fastest mfle) and is not equivalent. Above 120 mph basic wind speed, securement must be evaluated on a case by case basis. 3 zones as defined in ASCE 7-05. For most residences, zone 3 can conservatively be taken to be that region within four (4) feet of two perpendicular roof edges, including the ridge in the case of gable roofs. 1507-586 Rev C Page 2 of 10 02.22.2010 1414 Harbour Way South SUNPOWER P: 1.510.540.0550 Richmond, CA 94804 USA www.sunpowercorp.com F: 1.510.540.0552 Structural Notes: Wind Resistance of SunPower Composition Mounting System P/N 1505-735 III. SUNPOWER COMPOSITION MOUNTING SYSTEM CAPACITY A. Background While the uplift pressure due to wind on the PV modules will be less than on the structural sheathing, the loads will be concentrated at discrete locations, in this case the mounting pads, through the reaction of the fasteners. See FIGURE 1 and FIGURE 2 for a schematic of the Composition Mounting System mounting pad. Note that the mounting pad will normally have eight (8) screws engaged. For the purpose of the calculations, however, it is assumed that only four (4) screws are engaged. This assumption is made to allow for those cases where the remaining screws are driven in or adjacent to an unblocked seam between deck sheets. Failure can occur through several modes either individually or in combination: a. Withdrawal of the mounting pad screws. b. Sheathing point -load capacity c. Sheathing nail pullout. Based on a comparison of these failure modes, shown below, screw pullout is most critical at an allowable pullout capacity per Composition Mounting System device of 250 pounds. B. Screw Withdrawal Capacity The required number (4 each) of ITW-Buildex Trugrip GT #9 x 1-1/2" screws necessary to anchor a mount is determined as follows: APA Form TT -05 113 (November 2008), Screw Withdrawal from the Face ofAPA-Trademarked Structural Panels, on page 2 of 3 recommends the capacity of a screw in withdrawal from OSB (the weaker of the alternative sheathing materials) be determined using NDS (2005) formula 11.2-2 (Table 11.2B) with a specific gravity value, G = .45. For a #9 screw, this yields a value for W = 102 Ib finch of thread in the sheathing. For a single screw with threads in 7/16" of OSB, W = 102 x 7/16 = 45 lb f per screw. Adjusted for wind duration of load, W'= Co x W = 1.6 x 45 = 72 lb f per screw. The required number of screws, based on the capacity of the sheathing itself (see Section III.C., below) is: 250 Ibf/72 lbf per screw = 3.5, 4 screws. The screws must be positioned symmetrically to the axes of the mount and must be 1-1/2" long in order to assure the 3/8" tapered tip of this screw fully protrudes from the backside of the sheathing, taking into account the washer, mount and sheathing thicknesses. Because the screws may coincide with seams in the sheathing and thereby be ineffective, all 8 screws holes must be utilized. In those cases where attaching to the sheathing is insufficient for the required uplift, the SunPower Composition Mounting System is installed with the use of blocking. Approved blocking is a 2x6 flatwise between rafters or trusses. See Section III.E. below and the associated detail 1507-586 Rev C 1414 Harbour Way South Richmond, CA 94804 USA Page 3 of 10 SUNPOWER www.sunpowercorp.com 02.22.2010 P: 1.510.540.0550 F: 1.510.540.0552 Structural Notes: Wind Resistance of SunPower Composition Mounting System P/N 1505-735 Uplift from PV module Resistance to uplift provided by #9 ITW Buildex Trugrip GT Metal -to - Wood fasteners. 8 installed, 5 required to be secure.

Structural Sheathing Point -Load Capacity All calculations are carried out using ASD for convenience of use with the NDS. From NIST Voluntary Product Standard 2-04 (PS -2) for OSB, Table 1, the minimum ultimate point -load capacity (static) = 400 Ibf for 24" roof span rating. Convert this to an ASD value by use of NDS 2005 (Table N1), K = 2.16/0, where 0 is selected as a Bending Resistance Factor = .85. P = 400 x .8 5/2.16 = 15 7 P' (for wind load combinations) = P x CD where CD = 1.6 per NDS: P'= 157 x 1.6 = 252 The conclusion taken from the preceding is that the wind capacity (ASD/IBC 2006) of the anchorage of the SunPower Composition mount device in sheathing can be safely taken as 2501b f. D. Sheathing Nail Capacity A final possible failure mode would be that the wind uplift that is.concentrated at the mount could cause the nails local to the device to withdraw and a localized roof failure could result. Sheathing is assumed edge nailed at 6" and 12" inches in the field with 8d box nails. Before failure (disconnection of the sheathing from the roof), at least five (perhaps as many as 16) nails would be in active withdrawal. Per 2005 NDS, Table 11.2C, 8d box nails, (0.113" diameter) have withdrawal capacity (ASD) of 28 lb/in penetration. P.11 (IBC) = 5 (nails) x 1.6 (wind) x 1.5" (penetration) x 28 lb/in = 336 lb. ASD (Note regarding failure mode: The implication of the assumption of multiple nail participation is that a nail local to the device will begin to pull out and may pull out completely, but the nearest 5 nails will be intact. This is not a failure.) E. Blockine In those cases where attaching to the sheathing is insufficient for the required uplift, the SunPower Composition Mounting System must be installed with the use of blocking. Approved blocking is a 2x6 placed flatwise between rafters or trusses. The toe -nailing required is 3 —16d sinkers each end of the block. Alternatively, the blocks can be end nailed through 2x rafters or trusses with 3 —16d sinkers each end: 1. From the SunPower Safety and Installation Instructions... for 72 cell modules (measuring approximately 32" x 62" (Document 001-14158 Rev *E): "5.1 Site Considerations ... SunPower modules are designed to meet a maximum positive (or upward, e.g., wind) ... design pressure of 501b/ftp ..." This is taken as the Nominal wind pressure a panel can resist. Le., it incorporates a safety factor. Accordingly the blocking connections may conservatively be designed for this worst case without concern for wind exposure. 1507-586 Rev C Page 5 of 10 02.22.2010 1414 Harbour Way South SUNPOWER P: 1.510.540.0550 Richmond, CA 94804 USA www.sunpowercorp.C&n- F: 1.510.540.0552 Structural Notes: Wind Resistance of $unPower Composition Mounting System P/N 1505-735 Area of Panel x 50 psf = 13.4 sf x 50 psf = 670 lb f. Each mount will be exposed to 50% of this or 335 lb f. Deducting .6D (_ .6 x 33/2 lb f), P'= 335 + 10 = 345 Ib i It must be assumed a mount will be located at or near one end of a block. The wind (lateral) resistance of 16d toe -nailed sinkers is calculated as follows: From the 2005 NDS Table I IN, Z = 115 lb f for a 16d sinker (.148e x 3-1/4") The 2005 NDS adjustment for a short duration load is Cd= 1.6 The adjustment for toe -nail is C,.=.83, based on the 2005 NDS 11.5.4.2 Z'=115x1.6 x.83=153lbf _> 3 16d sinker toe -nails are required each end, for a total capacity 459 Ib f The wind (lateral) resistance of 16d end -nailed sinkers is calculated as follows: The values from above are identical except C., = .67 per NDS 11.5.2.2 must be substituted for C„,. Making this substitution, Z'= 124 Ib f _> alternatively 3 16d sinker end -nails may be used each end, for a total capacity of 372 Ib f. 2. Splitting of the blocking is an issue since the screws securing the blocking may be used as self drilling/self tapping. No more than three screws should be used and two are preferable, #9 x 2-1/2" ITW Buildex Trugrip screws with bonded washers should be used to secure the mounts in a blocked condition. Note that pre -drilling is required. The screws should be placed (a) in a diagonal pattern on two opposite corners of the mount for two total screws or (b) two screws on opposite sides of the mount centered on its major or minor axis for a total of two screws. Note the latter can be more prone to splitting. The effective length of these screws into the blocking is 1" after deduction for the roofing, tip, sheathing, washer and the mount. The capacity of the threaded length in the blocking would be: W = 121 Ib f/inch from NDS (2005) Table 11.213 W'= Cu x W = 1.6 x 121 = 1941b finch (and per screw). With two effective screws Pwi = 2 x 194 = 387 lb f, the required capacity of 345 lb f is exceeded. Note this requirement is independent of wind exposure as long as the panels are approved. The above connections/alternatives are reflected in the sketch on the following page. 1507-586 Rev C Page 6 of 10 02.22.2010 1414 Harbour Way South SUNPOWER P: 1.510.540.0550 Richmond, CA 94804 USA www.sunpowercorp.com F: 1.510.540.0552 M kA O a E ` a� >, rA own O Q O .N O c1.

WIND LOADS AND INSTALLATION TABLE A. Wind Forces For purposes of these notes and this product, the wind pressures are calculated by use of ASCE 7-05, Chapter 6. ASCE 7-05 provides the most recent and best available generally recognized authority for determination of wind forces. B. Critical Load Combination and Analysis The Allowable Stress Design (ASD) Method, Load Combination Equation 16-14 of the 2006 IBC -- .6D + W + H — is most critical to assure the capacity of the SunPower Composition Mounting System is adequate. This critical load combination simplifies to 0.6D + W in the absence of earth pressure.

A drawing or sketch, prior to roof work, is recommended. Upon finalizing layout, use chalk lines to mark support rail locations. The chalk lines will be used to align TileTrac® attachment points: Note: All support rails should be placed 48" apart along the module length. The rail dis- tance from the end of the module will vary based on module size. Note: When configuring layout account for a 0.6" inter - module clamp space between modules and 2" for each end of the module array for end clamp spacing. Chalk line — to reference support rail placement . The 48" grid design -is based on. 12", 16" or 24" on center (o/c) rafter spacing. . (12 x 4 487, 16" x 3= 48", 24" x 2 = 48") All product specifications are based on 48" paired support rail spacing. Proper module/rail orientation—single array sample s4�ib I- ,� •a • 2.0" End Clamp spacing Page 2 of 8 Clamps must secure the module on the long end of the frame. The span of the two support rails should be 48".

TileTrac 0 Installation Manual Date Modified: 09/12/07 For installations requiring more than one row, with no spacing between rows, the distance between adjacent rail pairs will measure approximately the length of the module less 48". r Snap chalk lines along the location of where the support rails will be placed once spacing is calculated and measured. 48" Actual spacing will be deter- mined on pattern of the roofing material to ensure a proper seal. Step 2: Locating roof rafters along chalk lines 1) Since rafters are normally located every 48" on center (o/c), finding one reference rafter should be sufficient for approximating the lo- cation of additional rafters by measuring 48" from the center of the first. 2) If the roof eve (bottom edge of roof) is ex- posed, reference the bottom edge of the roof rafter location and use to approximate the lo- cation of the roof rafter/intersection chalk line on the upper section of roof. (EASIEST FOR TILE ROOF) If the roof has a closed or blind soffeV (enclosed rafters not visible at roof edge),, the nailing pattern alongthe:fascia: board (board attached to ends -of rafters) may indi- cate the rafter location at:the;bottom edge of the.roof.

F STEP 3: Using an electronic stud finder locate the rafter center. Mark a reference point on the tile above. Alternate methods of finding rafter center (STEP 3): T �� 1) Using a dead -blow hammer, lightly tap perpendicular to the rafter until a solid sound is heard. Mark this location. 2) If attic is accessible, driving a nail upward beside the rafter may provide an adequate reference point. STEP 4: Drill several holes (if nec- essary) to locate the exact rafter center. A 3/16" pilot hole drill bit is recommended. STEP 5: Insert the lag bolt and washer through the TileTrac® and apply fresh sealant to the base. Page 4 of 8 Roofing mastic/sealant j must be applied per manufacturer's specifica- tions.

STEP 10: Insert the threaded shaft through the the into the upper carriage. Bind two 3/8" nuts (provided) using two opposing 9/16" wrenches and tighten to 14 ft. lbs. Water flows through the valley (lowest point) of the tile, not the crown (highest point), which virtually eliminates any chance of water leakage through the tile attachment. The crown of the the is the strongest point and will not break when properly drilled. Avoid attaching/drilling in the valley of the the to prevent water/debris build-up which may lead to leakage.
