Solar inspections
Our team of experienced electricians can provide you with solar inspections to ensure your property’s electrical system is in perfect working order before you decide to install solar in your building. Installing solar power to a faulty electrical system can cause major electrical problems to both your home as well as to your solar power system. Our electricians will inspect your electrical system to ensure all existing wiring is on standard and that the DB board is in a healthy state for solar power to be connected to it. During a solar inspection, our solar installer will measure your average amperage usage and requirement to provide you with a correctly sized system to accommodate your electrical load. We recommend an electrical assessment and inspection before investing in solar, as this is the safest and most reliable method in investing in solar energy systems. Investing in a solar system too small for your load will cause your solar inverter to trip and you will be left in the dark. Investing in a solar system too large will lead to unnecessary expenses and solar power will go to waste.

What is solar power?
Basically, solar power or solar energy is an electrical current generated by solar rays from the sun, hitting the solar panels and finally creating a DC (Direct Current) current. DC current cannot be used on most electrical appliances as the standard for most electrical appliances is in AC or Alternating Current. To make use of the solar-generated DC current, we use an inverter to convert the DC current into a pure sinewave AC current. So, the DC current goes into the inverter, the inverter converts the DC current to AC current and makes it available to your distribution board to supply to your electrical appliances.
Main solar system components
Solar inverter
Converts DC-generated current into usable AC current for your electrical appliances. The solar inverter also determines how large your solar system should be in watts.
Solar panels
Solar panels generate electricity from photons in the sun rays or solar rays. The solar panels are connected to the inverter’s MPPT unit.
Solar battery
Solar batteries are not required but can be used to store DC power especially for power outages or having power during the evenings.
