Metallic support structures listed, labeled, and identified for bonding and grounding metal parts of PV systems can be used to bond PV equipment to the metal support structure.
Builders that intend to meet both the solar PV and solar water heating RERH specifications should detail the location and the square footage of the roof area to accommodate both technologies.
Minimum clearance between the PV module (s) and the roofing material must be at least 10 cm. It is recommended that the module mounting structure be supported on top of a pole at least 50 cm long
