The wash gap
Rows are set far enough apart to wash the glass without stepping on it. That wash is a later visit.

The crew leaves a wash gap, because the spray lands on the glass. If you already own the panels and inverter, fitting starts at ₹3,000 per kW. A complete plant is drawn after a free visit from Madipakkam.

Spray reaches the glass
The sea is the neighbour, so the film lands on the modules, not only on the steel. Rails, clamps, and cable glands are still specified for that spray. The extra line on the drawing is the gap between rows, wide enough to wash without stepping on the glass. Washing is a later visit. The spray does not stop after switch-on. A coconut in the compound covers one corner at the same time each day. That corner is left bare. The bright side of the terrace can still be used. The roof itself is on panels for a Neelankarai home. Where a panel is fixed is on solar panel installation in Neelankarai.
Labour from ₹3,000 per kW covers civil work, mounting, wiring, testing, and commissioning when the modules and inverter are already yours. Cables and structure steel stay outside that rate. The scope is on installation services.

Rails, clamps, and cable glands are specified for sea spray. The film also lands on the modules.

Eligible homeowners can receive up to ₹78,000 with DCR modules and an approved file. Amount and approval follow current scheme rules. The row is still drawn only where the roof stays clear.
How to read the job
Ask whether a gap was left so the glass can be washed, and the shaded coconut corner was left bare. Labour from ₹3,000 per kW is fitting only, when the modules and inverter are already yours. A complete plant is drawn after the visit. Independent houses facing Neelankarai beach, and those just inland, are the usual fit. A flat on East Coast Road with no terrace of its own is not a private plant. A balcony toward the water is not a mounting place.
The figure is on solar panels and prices in Neelankarai. How any Chennai quote should be lined up is on panel and price. Shared roofs and road dust are the Thiruvanmiyur installation.

It rules out that corner. The bright side of the terrace can still be used when the clear hours are enough.
DCR modules keep the path to up to ₹78,000 open. A cheaper NDCR module can cost more once that assistance is given up. Ask who files the papers.
