Technolead Energyhelps to navigate compliance complexity and mitigate risks for solar products. Through testing, inspection and maintenance services, we help you to increase confidence in the reliability of your renewable energy technology.
INSPECTION & TESTING for the evolving solar systems is very necessary. Depending on your place in the value chain, there are several types of testing for both photovoltaic (PV) panels and peripheral equipment. We can help you identify and complete the testing that makes sense for your investments and power source. From factory inspections to performance, durability and reliability in real-world applications, we can help you to build confidence in your products. Our field inspectors
are also ready to be on-site wherever you need them to minimize downtime and keepcyou moving forward.
TECHNOLEAD ENERGY offers several comprehensive inspection and testing services available for complete solar systems. These services ensure that your solar installation is safe, efficient, and performing optimally.
A complete photovoltaic (PV) system involves several key procedures to ensure the system is safe, efficient, and performing optimally. Here are some of the main tests conducted:
o I-V Curve Tracing: Measures the current and voltage characteristics of the PV modules to ensure they are performing as expected.
o Power Output Test: Checks the actual power output of the system against the expected output to ensure it is generating the correct amount of electricity.
This involves checking the physical condition of all components, including solar panels, inverters, wiring, and mounting structures. Inspectors look for any visible damage, proper installation, and adherence to safety standards.
o Insulation Resistance Test: Ensures that the insulation of the electrical components is intact and there are no leaks.
o Continuity Test: Verifies that all electrical connections are properly made and there are no breaks or loosing in the circuit.
o Polarity Test: Confirms that the wiring is correctly connected, with the positive and negative terminals properly aligned.
o Grounding Test: Ensures that all metallic parts of the PV system are properly grounded to prevent electrical shocks.
o Earth Fault Test: Detects any faults in the system that could lead to electrical hazards. Confirm the earth pits are functional.
o Thermal Imaging: Uses infrared cameras to detect hot spots or areas of excessive heat, which can indicate potential issues with
the PV modules.
o Weather Simulation Tests: Simulates various weather conditions (e.g., wind, rain, hail) to ensure the system can withstand environmental stresses.
conducted when the system is first installed to ensure it meets all performance and safety standards before it is put into operation.
Here are some key aspects of these services: INITIAL INSPECTION: This involves a thorough check of the entire solar system,
including panels, inverters, wiring circuits, breakers, cables and mounting
structures. The goal is to ensure everything is installed correctly and complies with
local codes and standards.
PERFORMANCE TESTING: This includes testing the system’s energy production
to ensure it meets expected performance levels. It often involves checking the
voltage, current, and overall output of the system.
SAFETY CHECKS: Inspectors will verify that all safety measures are in place, such
as proper grounding, correct installation of disconnects, conduiting and adherence
to electrical codes/ signs.
MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDATIONS: Based on the inspection, you may receive
recommendations for maintenance or repairs to improve system performance and
longevity.
CERTIFICATION: Some services offer certification that your system meets specific
standards, which can be useful for insurance purposes or when selling a property.
REGULAR INSPECTIONS: It’s also beneficial to have periodic inspections to ensure
ongoing performance and to catch any potential issues early.
