Inclination angle 10°, within 43m/s wind load, as long as the solar module length is within 1100mm, two modules can share one rear leg.If the solar module length is more than 1100mm, or wind load is more than 43m/s, each module needs to use a separate rear leg.

Sure, the adjustable solar mounting system are also have different height rear leg so that the adjustable type can be adjusted tilt angle.
