System
Engineering:
Level 1 - Basic Engineering. System Electric
String Sizing must be verified for each specific zip code to ensure that
over-voltage does not occur during low temperature conditions; severe damage
can occur to the inverter if not properly sized. Wind loads must be determined
for proper mounting hardware spacing; you must provide a basic system layout to
our engineering department in order to verify spacing requirements. This
service is provided with the basic kit purchase.
Level 2 -
Custom Engineering. Engineering Design is available as an option. This
service includes a custom design for your specific residential application
[commercial systems vary, call for details]; our engineers work together with
you and/or your installer to design a system and determine a complete BOS
component list. We supply site specific Electrical Schematic, CAD drawings and
Engineering Submittals sealed by our Florida Professional Engineer [PE] ready
for submission to the building department. Building Departments in other states
may require a local engineer review and seal at an additional cost. Our
Engineering Department and Installation Department will assist you with
technical questions pertaining to your installation.
Level 3 -
Custom Engineering with Balance of System. This includes Level 2
Custom Engineering plus the Balance of System components; a custom tailored
package of all components to complete the installation [except
conduit].

Installation - These systems can be installed by the
do-it-yourselfer, however, the wiring connections should be installed by a
qualified electrical or solar contractor. Some rebate programs require a
Licensed Contractor to qualify for the rebate. Solar Direct offers installation
services in Florida and some other limited service areas. We can also work with
your choice of contractors; please call for
quotation.
