1. A system for mounting solar panels to a concrete roof, comprising:
a body comprising a cross support dividing a hollow defined in the body, a base and an attachment point coupled to a first end of the base and a foot coupled to a second end of the base, the attachment point including:
a bearing surface extending along the length of the attachment point,
a channel defining a portion through the attachment point and an opening through the bearing surface, and
a point having an angular profile and disposed in and extending along the length of the attachment point into the portion of the channel;
a fastener slidably installable in the channel, the fastener configured to engage within the channel in response to the fastener being installed in the channel; and
a clamp assembly slidably coupled to the body by the fastener,
the clamp having a first portion, a second portion and a spacer portion disposed between the first portion and the second portion, and
the clamp comprising a first electrically conductive pin disposed in the first portion and a second electrically conductive pin disposed in the second portion,
wherein the first electrically conductive pin engages a first frame of a first solar panel in response to the first solar panel being installed on the body, and
wherein the second electrically conductive pin engages a second frame of a second solar panel in response to the second solar panel being installed on the body.
