The use of glazing suction handles works well in dealing with the weight and ungainly nature of the panels.

There is a possible 5m dome installation coming up in the next year or so. Crane hire will be needed to lift the panels.

I would be interested in the mod wiring detail. It never occurred to me use a panel in that spot.
