Properly spaced brackets distribute the weight of the panels evenly, accommodate thermal expansion, and withstand environmental forces such as wind and snow loads.
IEC 61215-1:2021 lays down requirements for the design qualification of terrestrial photovoltaic modules suitable for long-term operation in open-air climates.
The spacing of photovoltaic brackets is usually between 2. This is to ensure that the front and rear rows of brackets will not block each other's shadows, thereby ensuring the light utilization rate of photovoltaic modules.

Solar panels and all mounting hardware (frame, rails, etc. ) weight does not exceed five (5) pounds per square foot (psf) or 45 pounds (lbs) concentrated load at each point of attachment or support, with a maximum weight of two-hundred (200) lbs per framing member.
This report provides basic guidance for applying ASCE Standard 7-05 to existing codes and standards for the typical residential application of PV arrays mounted parallel to the roof slope and relatively close (3 to 6 inches) to the roof surface.
