What Actually Goes Wrong — and Why

1 of 6

Solar Panels & Micro-Inverters

The array and everything under it — racking, micro-inverters, optimizers.

What we get called out for

  • Critter damage under the array.
  • Premature panel, micro-inverter or optimizer failure — caused by poor system design, improper electrical materials, or poor electrical workmanship.
  • Failed electrical connections or rooftop junction boxes due to poor materials or improper electrical installation.
  • Water damage inside equipment due to improper sealing and installation.

Central Inverter

The string inverter on the wall. Some homes have one of these, some have micro-inverters, some have both.

What we get called out for

  • Premature failure and error codes — caused by poor installer electrical workmanship, improper engineering and system design, and low quality electrical components.
  • Occasionally a genuine manufacturer defect.
  • Water damage inside equipment due to improper sealing and installation.

Solar Electrical Wall

The main panel, sub-panel and disconnects — the whole electrical set on the side of the house.

What we get called out for

  • Blown fuses or breakers tripping — caused by improper electrical engineering or electrical workmanship.
  • Failed equipment due to manufacturing defects.
  • Failed electrical connections, junction boxes, disconnects, or sub panels due to poor materials or improper electrical installation.
  • Water damage inside equipment due to improper sealing and installation.

Monitoring Device

The piece almost nobody checks — and the reason so many systems sit half-broken for months.

What we get called out for

  • No actual monitoring installed or configured at all!
  • Poor internet connection, so the data never reaches the cloud or the solar app on your phone.
  • No consumption monitoring installed — which is what lets you balance production against what you actually use.
  • No site map created — the map showing which panel is where, which is what makes diagnosis down to the panel level possible.

Battery

Tesla Powerwall and the rest — storage is only as good as the electrical work behind it.

What we get called out for

  • Error codes — caused by improper electrical engineering of the system, poor electrical workmanship at installation, or manufacturing defects.
  • Improper software configuration between the battery system, the home and the grid — which causes your entire home to lose power after a grid outage instead of giving you power during one!

EV Charger

Home charging fails for the same reasons storage does.

What we get called out for

  • Error codes — same causes as the battery: improper electrical engineering of the system, poor electrical workmanship at installation, or manufacturing defects.
