Cold, but install continues

This morning, the temperature was in the upper teens, and there was a frost on the roof, but there was no precipitation, so we kept on installing.

I thought it would be nice to see what it is like from above, since all previous photos have been taken from the ground. At mid-day Saturday, we have 259 panels on the building, so just about halfway done. The weather doesn't look good on Mon/Tue and Thu/Fri is Thanksgiving, so thus the work this weekend to try and keep on pace.

If you look at the ridge of the 2nd photo, you can see where the strings feed to a combiner box. They then route via cable to an inverter that's located on the otherside of our building (in a sheltered courtyard - more efficient when kept cool) where it will convert from direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) and be tied into the electric utility grid operated by United Illuminating.
