What does a solar PV design cover?
A design can cover array layout, inverters, DC and AC protection, shutdown, cable routes, connection points and monitoring. The exact scope is agreed at the start of the project.
SOLAR PANELS
Solar PV systems for cleaner, more energy-efficient and reliable building power.
All servicesWe plan roof-mounted solar PV layouts, inverters, protection, shutdown, monitoring and integration with building systems.
Solar generation integrated with building power and controls
Solar PV work brings together roof layout, arrays, inverters, DC and AC protection, shutdown and monitoring. The initial arrangement responds to available area, orientation and the building's electrical infrastructure.
The PV system is coordinated with roof zones, structural information, cable routes, distribution equipment and building-control points. The agreed scope can extend from design through testing and handover.
How we work
Site and roof review
We review available roof zones, orientation, shading information and the initial electrical connection conditions.
Electrical design and coordination
Array groups, inverters, protection, shutdown and cable routes are coordinated with the roof and building distribution system.
Testing, monitoring and handover
Installed elements go through the agreed checks, monitoring points are verified and the handover information defined by the project scope is prepared.
Included scope
- PV layout & energy-yield assessment
- Inverter, protection & shutdown design
- Roof and electrical infrastructure coordination
- Monitoring and BMS integration
- Testing, commissioning & handover
Coordination with other systems
A PV system connects with the roof architecture and structure, electrical distribution, protective devices and monitoring. Coordinating these interfaces defines equipment locations, routes and connection points.
Frequently asked questions
How are the roof and electrical scope coordinated?
Array zones are reviewed with roof use, access and available structural information. Inverter and cable locations are then coordinated with the building's electrical infrastructure.
Is monitoring included?
Monitoring points and a BMS connection can be included in the agreed scope. Required data and communication methods are defined by the selected inverters and building-control requirements.
