    The proposed solar PV panels will be installed on a 4-degree pitched trapezoidal roof with an eaves’ height of seven meters. The proposed 240 number of solar panels will be fixed to the roof using a light weight mounting system and will be cabled together. Both the mounting system and cabling will be fitted on the underside of the solar panels, and thus will be out of sight. One discreet DC cable will enter the building at the top of the building’s side wall, feeding into the internal electrics room, where the energy will be converted, and used on site.
