NOVELTY - The system (10) has a fluoropolymer encapsulated reinforcement layer (40) whose first side provides an unencapsulated reinforcement surface (45), such that an encapsulated surface (43) is adhered to a bondable layer (30). An adhesive layer (50) is placed upon the unencapsulated reinforcement surface. An ethylene propylene diene monomer edging unit (60) is placed upon the adhesive layer, and comprises a sloped outer edge and an inner edge. A profiled portion (70) is located about the inner edge, and engages and supports a photovoltaic (PV) device (80) e.g. solar cell.    USE - PV/architectural membrane system for affixing to a rooftop of building structures for converting light energy from the sun into electricity.    ADVANTAGE - The system has extensible properties such that the system elongates/extends/shrinks/deforms without damage to the PV device. The system has the ability to remove and replace PV components from the system without the damage to the underlying support, so that the component can be simply removed, and replaced or repaired and reattached without the need to reattached by fasteners or screws, when one of the components is damaged, or worn out, or requires maintenance. The component is securely fastened to the system, such that the component can withstand wind, rain, snow, heat, and cold, while accommodating the flexing and elongation of the membrane. The system provides the ability to change/replace the PV device while providing a strong enough engagement that the elements cannot be easily separated from the system.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - The profile is a slot, a groove and a snap fit engagement system. The system comprises a third layer with reinforcement including glass, fiberglass, polyaramid, polyester, carbon fiber or metal fiber fabric and mesh or nonwoven material.
