Hello people,
I'm installing a Sigma ground mount system for the first time, and need a little advice.
I've been told by the guys from mounting systems GMBH that we can just ram the posts in with a suitable machine - any ideas as to what i need and likely cost appreciated!
However, I've also been warned that there's a risk of bending the posts and that we'd be better off drilling out the holes with a post-hole driller, placing the posts in and then filling with postcrete (expensive but maybe quicker) or a dryish sand/cement mix.
I have the mounting system on order already so am limited to that as an option (i've read the posts about benefits of using concrete base etc and have also used Renusol tubs for smaller installation but this is 30kWp) - I'd appreciate any advice particularly with regard to which option above is the better.
Thanks
