Solar Panel Install

               This is an update from the “Free Electric” posting.

 
               If you will view the photos you should be able to see my progress in the solar panel install on, “The Ford Homestead Shed”. 
Below there is a board attached to the shed and on the board are hooks. These hooks allow me to hang the solar panel and allow it to move from vertical to approximately a 30 degree angle.
 
In this photo we see the frame that the solar panels attach too. It is in the vertical position
The next photo shows the frame at an angle, there are two legs that hold it in this position. When collecting solar energy the panel would be in this position.
In the last photo the panel is installed. Do not look at the wires at the top of the panel and where they go through the wall inside the shed. I said “Don’t look” but you looked anyway!
You never listen.
               I have started installing the inside equipment but have not finished. As I worked in the shed yesterday I had a fan blowing air from the outside into the shed using the solar power. Even though there was plenty of air movement the shed was still hot.
