Introducing Structures for Panels in Enact

How to add Structures for Panels 

  1. Add Panels on the Roof: Start by placing solar panels onto the desired rooftop area.

  2. Access Panel Properties: Click on "Show More" under the panel properties section.

  3. Add Frame Height: Enter the frame height to visualise the structures and ensure proper panel elevation.

Key Benefits of Using Structures for Panel Groups

1. Improved Design Consistency

Enact’s structured approach ensures uniform spacing, orientation, and angling of panels. This consistency leads to optimal energy capture and enhances the system’s aesthetic appeal.

2. Faster System Design & Implementation

Instead of individually placing panels, users can define panel group structures that are pre-configured based on standard best practices. This significantly reduces design time and expedites the installation process.

3. Better Load Distribution and Structural Integrity

Grouping panels into well-defined structures ensures proper load distribution, reducing risks associated with wind uplift, weight imbalance, and structural failure.

4. Seamless Adjustments and Customisation

Users can easily adjust the positioning, elevation, or orientation of panel groups within Enact’s platform. Whether optimising for sun exposure or adapting to roof constraints, modifications can be made effortlessly.
