Solar O&M checklist for contractors

For solar O&M contractors, ensuring the seamless operation of solar installations isn’t just about efficiency — it’s about building trust and reputation in the industry. Here’s some of the requirements for providing top-tier service to your clients:

 

  • Detailed visual inspection

          Conduct systematic examinations for damages such as panel cracks, discolored cells, and broken glass. A trained eye can catch issues that may be missed by the untrained observer.

  • Panel cleaning

          Using specialized cleaning equipment, ensure that panels are free from debris, bird droppings, and other obstructions, optimizing their effectiveness.

  • Advanced electrical checks

          Employ diagnostic tools to detect corroded terminals, assess loose connections, and monitor any potential damage to cables or connectors.

  • Performance monitoring systems

          Use professional-grade monitoring systems to continuously track energy output, enabling rapid detection of any deviations from expected performance.

  • Inverter health checks

          Beyond just reading the display, delve into detailed inverter logs and software diagnostics to catch potential issues early.

  • Alignment optimization

          Make use of  tools and software to ensure panels are at the ideal tilt and orientation, taking into account local solar angles and potential shading.

  • Ventilation assessment

           Ensure cooling systems are efficient, especially for inverters, to avoid overheating and potential system failures.

  • Battery health monitoring (if applicable)

          For installations with energy storage, conduct detailed battery health checks, monitoring charge cycles, potential leaks, and ensuring optimal functionality.

  • Safety protocols:

​          Regularly test all safety devices, including ground fault protection systems and disconnect mechanisms. This not only ensures system safety but also complies with regional and national standards.

  • Detailed documentation:

          Maintain meticulous records of all inspections, interventions, detected issues, and implemented solutions. This not only helps in troubleshooting but also instills confidence in your clients.
