Solar Inspections in Austin

An independent inspection of an array you own or are about to own — production, safety, workmanship and warranty status, in writing.

Top Four Reasons Systems Fail Inspection

  • Rapid Shutdown Rules Changed Underneath YouCode requirements for module-level shutdown tightened over the last decade. Systems that were compliant when installed do not always meet what an inspector looks for now.
  • Labeling and Signage Are Missing or FadedPlacards fade off in Texas sun within a few years. It is the most common correction notice we see and it has nothing to do with how the system performs.
  • Grounding and Bonding Done WrongImproper bonding is common on older arrays and on anything installed by a crew that was moving fast. It is a safety failure, not a paperwork failure.
  • The Work Was Never PermittedA surprising number of Central Texas systems were installed without a permit or never got a final inspection. It stays invisible until you sell, insure or add to the system.

Top Four Solutions to This Problem

  • Inspect It the Way Your Inspector WillWe walk your system against the same code your jurisdiction enforces, so nothing surprises you on inspection day.
  • Give You the Findings in WritingPhotographs, what is wrong, what code section it touches and what it costs to fix. Yours to keep whether or not you hire us for the repair.
  • Correct the ViolationsLicensed electricians under TECL #33444 doing the actual corrections, not a checklist and a referral to somebody else.
  • Handle Permits and Re-InspectionWe pull the permit, meet the inspector and close it out, including on systems that never had one to begin with.
