when connecting the GX300 modules, what is the easiest way to get the 3rd panel into the mid clamp
The mid clamps I'm using has a rubber insulator that makes it difficult to slide the next panel in place. Should I just place each panel individually with end clamps

Luiz,
Those can be tricky little buggers, but I find the easiest way to go about this is to start the row from one direction beginning with the first pair of end clamps. Once the first module is secured at the end clamps you can place the mid clamps on and loosely hand tighten them so that you can start thinking about mounting the 3rd. Place the next pair of mid clamps on the 2nd module then insert the 3rd into those. Once you have the 3rd module in you can have someone come along behind you to tighten the other clamps down as you move along in that fashion. It's not exactly a one-man job, so if you can it would be a good idea to have one or two assistants there to hold modules in place while one or two others are mounting the subsequent modules.

I hope this helps you with your install!
