Make a long story short. One of my clients has to reduce system size because of the setbacks. So now I am window shopping for a solar tracker single axis for an 18* pitched flat roof and the system needs to meet a minimum of ISO, UL/ETL would be a nice add to get it through the building process.

Any recommendations?

    Be advised that tracking systems are far heavier than fixed systems. Mind your psf.

    I know, the roof meets the structural requirement 8X8 beams 16" on center.
    I have an engineer ready to sign off on it that works wiht myself and my client.
    All the new setbacks are killing my installations!
