Homemade photovoltaic transport bracket

Here’s the design for the stand we’ll be building: It’s made of seven sections of PVC pipe: 1. Crossbar 2. Support beam 3. Base beam 4. 2 upper leg.

Time for lots of measuring! We need to find the following dimensions: 1. Crossbar length 2. Stand width 3. Stand height Once we know these.

Flip your solar panel over. Measure the gap between the frame’s rim and the back of the panel. Use this number to determine the thickness of the PVC.

Now that we know our stand dimensions, we need to calculate the length of the following pieces of PVC: 1. Base and support beams 2. Upper.
