Who do you talk for hiring out the plans? Local solar companies want nothing to do with people that are diying most of the install.

Does anyone have an example of what a solar plan looks like. I am about to get permits for my solar install and they require a solar plan, I am not sure what this is supposed to look like.

If you wanted, see if you can change it to the new JK BMS, it has a built in 2a active balancer, it's one of the better bms's on the market (according to off grid garage and he is a pretty smart dude :).

I was PM'd by another member who said they did the same thing to them, so this may be somewhat common for them to do.

Off grid garage is how I learned of them, the gobel diy case and the new Eve MB30 cells, which is what I ordered, I used his links to order from his website, so hopefully he gets his commission, love his channel, so informative and I am a solar newb so have lots to learn. :)

It was "only" $65 but wanted to see if this was a tactic they were using for others or just an honest mistake.

I don't think its sketchy paying via CC or Paypal but after getting a quote for the product and the shipping quote to my address and paying the invoice they almost immediately email me back saying I owe more money now for "remoteness" delivery fee, (even though when I was quoted I was told due...

So will one panel plug into the other in series with what is already on the panel or do I need jumper cables with the proper ends to make each connection from one panel to the other?

It will be about 70' total length from farthest panel to the inverter, around 375 volts, panels are ~4000 watts per string.

I am having a contractor install 20 panels on the roof of my pole barn, they are Talesun TP7G54M 400 watt (up to 500 watt) bifacial panels purchased from signaturesolar. I will have 2 rows of 10 panels each, each row wired in series, so two strings of 10 panels in each. The data sheet says the...

I am having 20 panels installed on the roof of my pole barn (I have the panels already, hiring someone to do the work), what are some recommended roof mount kits I should look into getting for this, it is a shingle roof. There will be 2 strings of 10 that will be go to one of my inverters (EG4...

I am between GR and Lansing

I am looking to hire someone that can consult with for a fairly large residential solar install. I already have the panels (72 panels), 3 inverters and diy batteries and plan to do the majority of the install myself but some of it I want to hire out. I would like to hire someone to help with...
