  1. Steps To Take And Legalities To Complete For A Successful Residential Solar Installation There is no easy part to a residential solar installation, from choosing which installer to use to understanding what your home's energy needs are it is a process. The best advice is to hire experts. Many reputable and reliable solar companies have been in the business for many years and will be able to install to the local authority regulations and specifications. Residential solar installations can give the homeowner independence from the main grid and bring down bills and dependence in the traditional way. When the installation is up and working it is a reminder to the greater community to think green and be considerate of their environmental footprint. It may seem like a big saving to install a DIY solar system, but it is not easy and requires qualified electricians to connect the power. It is better to invest in the correct installation by a professional that is used for residential solar systems. When the solar panels are correctly installed the homeowner will see a return on investment without the hiccups that a DIY system will invariably give. This is not a job for amateurs it is a very technical process. This is not a quick residential installation, to ensure that the solar system is efficient, reliable, effective, and performing correctly, the installer will need to perform some very important steps. After the contract is signed with a reputable installation company, they will send an engineer to inspect the residential home and the electricity supply. They will check that everything will be able to handle the solar installation and be compatible. If the residential house is old and the system is outdated, then the solar engineer could insist on an upgrade before the installation. This could also impact the amps needed to be supplied by the solar panels. The solar system will perform as well as it is designed and installed therefore having a knowledgeable and qualified engineer is very important. They will check that the roof is strong

There is a lot of permits and documents for local zoning and safety that are needed to receive approval for a residential solar installation. Thankfully all major well-established and reputable installers do most of the legal paperwork for the homeowner. Some of the requirements are: • Local electrical permits • Local building permits • Permission from the utility company to enroll in net metering • Applications for incentive programs The installer will submit all the paperwork however dealing with so many different departments and government officials it is time-consuming. The best advice is to keep contacting them to ensure that everything is on track and moving forward. One of the first things on the list is choosing the panels, inverters, solar batteries doing homework, and finding which ones are most reliable, affordable, and efficient. The equipment for the residential solar installation cannot be ordered until all the permits and permissions are in place. When the ordering is done the name of the homeowner will be added to a queue that schedules a time and date for the installer to assemble the order as it arrives from the manufacturer. Eventually, everything is in order and the installer arrives to prep the roof and install the residential solar system and connect the battery banks the home will be soon converting DC to AC and the household will be using its own generated clean energy. The last tick on the list is the PTO which is received from a municipal representative that comes to inspect the residential solar installation. Once they approve it, they will issue the homeowner with a Permission to Operate which is a safety precaution and to validate that the installation is correctly wired and connected. These are the basic steps of a residential solar installation. Note that each home is slightly different with its unique challenges that installers will overcome with their experienced teams.
