[QUOTE="binky, post: 525240, member: 490"] Moving existing PV gear can be much easier said than done. The panel clips and bolts that hold the frames together can corrode up in a way that means they can only be removed by destruction. The use of aluminium and stainless steel in direct contact guarantees you will get electrolytic corrosion, ie dissimilar metals will form a weak battery when wet. I'm fairly convinced solar gear has been deliberately designed to do this to prevent any loosening of components over it's 30+ year lifespan. [/QUOTE]
