How to Install Solar Panels – Infinite Eco Tech

A typical residential solar panel system (around 5 kW) can produce approximately 7,000 to 9,000 kWh of electricity annually, which can cover most of a household’s energy needs. Installing solar panels is a significant step toward embracing renewable energy and reducing reliance on traditional power sources. At Infinite Eco Tech, we pride ourselves on delivering top-notch solar panel installation services that ensure maximum efficiency and customer satisfaction. With over a decade of experience in the solar industry, our detailed and systematic approach ensures every project is handled with precision and expertise. This guide provides an in-depth look at the comprehensive solar panel installation process, from the moment you purchase your panels to the final handover.

Step 1: Site Assessment and Planning

Site Survey

 

  • Preliminary Assessment: We gather basic information about the property, such as location, roof type, and current energy consumption.
  • On-Site Inspection: Our technicians visit the installation site to conduct a thorough inspection. This includes assessing the roof structure, shading, orientation, and available space.
  • Solar Resource Evaluation: We use tools to analyze sunlight exposure and identify potential shading issues.

Energy Requirement Analysis:

  • Load Calculation: We calculate the client’s daily energy consumption to determine the size of the solar system needed. This involves analyzing past electricity bills and identifying high-energy-consuming appliances.
  • Peak Sun Hours: We consider the average peak sun hours at the location to estimate the potential energy production.

Panel Placement and Component Selection:

  • Optimal Placement: We plan the optimal placement of solar panels to maximize sunlight exposure and efficiency. This includes deciding the tilt angle and orientation of the panels.
  • Component Selection: We select high-quality solar panels, inverters, mounting systems, and other components that best suit the client’s needs and site conditions.

Step 2: Installation Preparation

Equipment Delivery

  • Ordering Equipment: We order all necessary equipment, including solar panels, mounting hardware, inverters, and electrical components, from trusted suppliers.
  • Quality Check: Upon delivery, we conduct a quality check to ensure all components meet our high standards.
  • Safety Measures: We set up scaffolding, safety barriers, and warning signs to ensure a safe working environment.
  • Roof Inspection: We clean and inspect the roof to ensure it is free from damage and can support the solar panel system.

Step 3: Installation

Mounting System Installation

  • Positioning Mounts: We carefully position the roof mounts according to the design plan, ensuring they are properly aligned and spaced.
  • Securing Mounts: We securely attach the mounts to the roof structure, using appropriate fasteners and waterproofing measures to prevent leaks.

Attaching Rails:

  • Fixing Rails: We attach rails to the roof mounts, creating a stable framework for the solar panels. The rails are aligned to ensure the panels will be level and securely held in place.

Positioning Panels:

  • Placement: We place the solar panels on the rails, ensuring they are oriented and tilted to maximize sunlight exposure.
  • Alignment: We align the panels to maintain a uniform appearance and optimize performance.

Securing Panels:

  • Fastening: We use clamps and brackets to securely fasten the panels to the rails, ensuring they are held firmly in place.

Wiring Panels:

  • Series or Parallel: We connect the solar panels in series or parallel configurations as designed, ensuring optimal voltage and current output.
  • Cable Management: We neatly organize and secure the wiring to prevent damage and ensure easy maintenance.

Inverter Connection:

  • DC to AC Conversion: We link the solar panel array to the inverter, which converts the DC electricity generated by the panels into AC electricity for home use.
  • Grounding: We ensure proper grounding of the system to protect against electrical faults and ensure safety.

Step 4: System Integration and Testing

Connection to Main Panel:

  • Main Electrical Panel: We connect the inverter to the main electrical panel, integrating solar power with the household electrical system.
  • Battery Storage (if applicable): If the system includes battery storage, we connect the batteries to store excess energy for later use.

Performance Testing:

  • Operational Check: We conduct a thorough operational check to ensure the system is producing the expected amount of electricity.
  • Efficiency Verification: We verify that the system is operating at optimal efficiency and address any issues that arise.

Safety Inspection:

  • Electrical Safety: We inspect all electrical connections and components to ensure they are safe and comply with local regulations.
  • System Activation: Once all inspections are passed, we activate the solar power system, ensuring it starts producing electricity.
