Did you not need any hold down for the roof wires? I was planning to zip tie mine as you did then use a blob of non leveling dicor on each zip tie as I think it will give a better bond to the wires.

I zip tied the wires to each other and to the mounting frame of the panels. Two hole strain relief holds the wire as it enters the fridge vent. I have thought about a blob of Dicor near the air conditioner or to make a bracket off the air conditioner to zip tie the wire to something. Seems fine in the mean time. Will revisit in the Spring.
The #10 wire with MC4 connectors is fairly stiff so it is not really flopping around that much. I think it is about 8 strands copper with UV insulation made for solar installs.
